Many Californians believe that robocalls are entirely prohibited under state law, but this is a common misconception. While California does have strict regulations regarding telemarketing and automated calls, known as the California Robocall Protection Act (CRPA), it’s not as straightforward as simply blocking all robocalls. The CRPA allows certain types of automated calls for specific purposes, such as notifications from government agencies or health care providers.
If you’re wondering, “Can I sue for robocalls in California?” the answer isn’t a simple yes or no. While you may not be able to sue based solely on receiving an unwanted robocall, if these automated calls violate the CRPA by not providing an opt-out option or using deceptive language, they could be considered illegal. In such cases, individuals can file complaints with the California Attorney General’s Office and potentially seek collective action against the offending companies.
