Robocall Lawyer in Arizona: $500 to $1,500 Per Illegal Call

The federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) is the law behind every robocall recovery. It bars autodialed and prerecorded calls and texts to your cell phone without consent and bars telemarketing to numbers on the Do Not Call Registry. Each violation is worth $500, and up to $1,500 when it was willful. The damages are per call, so a campaign that hits you twice a week for three months is a meaningful claim.

Arizona’s Telephone Solicitations article, A.R.S. § 44-1271 and following, works alongside the federal law. Section 44-1278 bars artificial or prerecorded voice calls to residential telephones without prior consent, restricts equipment that dials random or sequential numbers, and prohibits blocking the caller identification function. Section 44-1282 prohibits outbound solicitation calls and text messages to numbers on the national Do Not Call registry and sets a civil penalty of up to $1,000 per violation. Arizona does not run a separate state list; the national registry is the list. These provisions are enforced by the Arizona Attorney General’s consumer protection section rather than through a private lawsuit, so in practice the state statute supports your TCPA claim and gives the Attorney General a reason to act, while the TCPA is what pays you per call.

TCPA cases for Arizona residents are filed in the District of Arizona, which sits in Phoenix and Tucson and covers the whole state, including Mesa, Chandler, Scottsdale and Flagstaff. Spoofed 602, 480 and 520 numbers are a standard trick for making an out-of-state call center look local, and the spoofing does not change who is responsible. Retirement communities across the Valley see heavy volumes of Medicare and health-plan robocalls, and those prerecorded calls to a cell phone are among the clearest violations.
