When Life Gives You Lemons — Call an Attorney

Robocalls are the bane of your existence. They seem to pop up constantly, annoying you throughout the day. Even if you only get a few robocalls each day, it is a few too many.

Are you ready to put a stop to harassing robocalls? These tips will help you stop the calls quickly.

Don't Answer the Phone Calls

The first thing a robocall lawyer will tell you to do is stop answering the phone. If you do not know the number, don't answer the phone. If you do happen to answer the phone, make sure you do not say anything and hang up.

Be Aware of Spoofed Phone Numbers

Did you know that robocallers can spoof phone numbers so that they appear to be local? They can even pretend to be phone numbers that you know, trying to convince you to pick up the phone. Avoid answering the phone even if the number has an area code similar to yours.

Register Your Phone Number

Make sure that you register your phone number as part of the 'Do Not Call' registry. This will help you begin your case so that you can pursue legal action after a company continues to call you. A lawyer will request that you take this step before you do anything else.

Don't Press Buttons or Say Anything

If you do answer the phone and hear a recorded message, do not listen to the prompts telling you that you should press a specific button. Avoid answering questions as well. This can be used against you in the future.

Looking into Robocall-Blocking Apps

Certain apps can be used to block robocalls. Some phones even have settings so that you can stop your phone from ringing if a number calls that is not in your contacts. This will help you avoid accidentally answering a phone call. Certain apps can also block known spoofed phone numbers.

Start Keeping Track of Phone Numbers

It is also important that you keep a log of how many calls you get each day. You can screenshot the phone calls or simply write them down. It is important that you have a list available for a legal professional.
