Experience
Partner
May 2001 — Present · Nashville, TN
I concentrate my legal practice on counseling, investigations, and litigation in the financial services sector, with an emphasis on the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), and Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). I provide counsel to nationwide consumer reporting agencies (CRAs) and furnishers of consumer data on how to ensure regulatory compliance under ever-increasing demands of federal regulatory agencies. I settled the claims of consumers on behalf of a CRA in a nationwide class action and successfully defended a CRA against a variety of FCRA claims tried to jury verdict. I regularly advise on FCRA, FDCPA, and TCPA compliance issues, handling investigations conducted by the Federal Trade Commission and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and representing clients in class action and individual litigation.My experience in financial services compliance programs and government investigations is complemented by my engagement by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) to serve as a regulatory auditor. For seven years, I frequently worked on-site at the NYSE conducting interviews, reviewing regulatory programs, providing recommendations, and rendering bi-annual reports to the NYSE and Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the NYSE\'s compliance with federal securities laws and regulations.
