Personal Injury Law Firm Accused of Making 85 Unwanted Calls in 3 Years
The Law Office of Arnold Scott Harris, a personal injury law firm in Mount Prospect, Illinois, hounded plaintiff Jason Brodsky’s cellphone with at least 85 calls with an artificial or prerecorded voice between March 2020 and April 29 this year involving “an alleged parking ticket,” said Brodsky’s complaint Wednesday (docket 1:23-cv-03775) in U.S. District Court for Northern Illinois. Brodsky asked the office in March 2020 to stop calling his phone, said the complaint. The defendant responded by asking him to clarify if he wanted the office to remove his number from its internal call list, or to simply stop calling, it said. When Brodsky asked the office to remove his number from its list, the defendant confirmed it would do so, but the calls nevertheless kept coming, said the complaint. It alleges violations of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act. The defendant didn't comment.
