Spam & Bulk E-Mail Litigation and Disputes: CyberLaw has substantiated experience in "electronic torts" such as spam and bulk e-mail litigation and disputes. Many federal and state laws regulate false and misleading e-mail. The primary federal law, entitled "Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003," or Can-Spam for short, was initially passed as Public Law 108-187, via Senate bill S.77 but was later codified as 15 U.S.C. 7701, et seq. There are also numerous state laws that regulate false and deceptive e-mail. The issues involved in anti-spam statutes are numerous, including Internet Service Provider immunity, conspiracy issues, falsity and more. Whether a plaintiff or defendant in an anti-spam dispute, having the right legal representation is critical.
Facsimile Disputes and Litigation: Facsimile and telephone marketers can be a huge hassle to legitimate businesses leading to costs such as decreased productivity, tied phone lines, toner, and paper. To combat this problem the United States Congress passed the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) in 1991 and codified it as 47 U.S.C. 227. The TCPA prohibits unsolicited fax advertisements, prerecorded voice messages, and telemarketing. It also provides for a private right of action, which allows private individuals to seek statutory damages of up to $1,500 per violation. CyberLaw has experience with the TCPA in state and federal courts, including class action experience. Whether a plaintiff or defendant, CyberLaw can advise you through TCPA litigation or other disputes.
Spyware Litigation and Disputes: The newest of the "cybertorts," spyware is beginning to attract the attention of attorney generals in numerous states, and many statutes allow plaintiffs to individually seek damages from spyware programmers and distributors. Often called adware or malware, spyware producers and distributors may also be subject to criminal laws as well as monetary damages.
SMS and Text Messaging Spam: One of the newer tech-law issues, the increasing use of wireless phones and personal digital assistants has led to a rise in text-messaging spam. CyberLaw can help you determine the identity of the sender, any assistants or affiliates that sent the message, and may be able to recover monetary damages for these invasions of your privacy.
