“THE TROUTMAN EFFECT?” Americans Have Received Over 5 Billion Fewer Robocalls Since Eric Troutman Launched His Anti-Robocall Congressional Campaign– Why Do Robocallers Fear the Man Known as “The Czar”
Irvine, CARobocalls Have Been Down Every Month Since Troutman announced his bid for California’s 47th Congressional District According to Data from YouMail’s Robocall Index
Irvine, CA
With just one week to go before California’s critical June 2, 2026 primary one Congressional candidate is already declaring a victory of sorts– over the scourge of unwanted robocalls.
“When I announced my Congressional bid I promised Americans across the nation I would bring an end to the robocall scourge.” Candidate Eric Troutman says. “I am proud to say we’ve already helped stop over 5 billion of these calls– and I’m hoping the voters here in Orange County will give me a chance to finish the job.”

Chart showing immediate drop in calls following Troutman’s announcement.
Known as the “Troutman Effect” in campaign circles, the YouMail Robocall Index show a plain drop in robocalls received by Americans following Troutman’s announcement he was joining the race in October, 2025.
“There’s just no other way to explain this drop.” Troutman’s campaign says. “Troutman enters the case and instantly the trend of rising robocalls reverse– the bad guys fear Troutman because they know he will put them out of business once and for all.”
The data is certainly there to support the theory.
Troutman officially announced his run in October, 2025 and YouMail’s Robocall Index has shown a YoY reduction in robocalls every month since:
Per YouMail’s Robocall Index, consumers have received far FEWER robocalls every month since Troutman announced his bid:
October, 2025: 1,170,000,000 fewer calls than year before
November, 2025: 867,000,000 fewer calls than year before
December, 2025: 248,000,000 fewer calls than year before
January, 2026: 856,000,000 fewer calls than year before
February, 2026: 621,000,000 fewer calls than year before
March, 2026: 598,000,000 fewer calls than year before
April, 2026: 746,000,000 fewer calls than the year before.
That’s 5.1BB fewer calls Americans have endured since Troutman launched his anti-robocall Congressional campaign. An amazing accomplishment to the extent the “Troutman Effect” is really behind the drop in calls.
“Anyone claiming this is a coincidence is just uninformed.” Troutman says. “Sure maybe if calls were down for a month or two but they dropped like a rock and they have stayed down– these guys do not want me in office and they’re playing nice to see what happens.”
Troutman is one of the best known telecom lawyers in the world and has dedicated his time and personal fortune to stopping the robocall epidemic.
“I’ve spent hundreds of thousands of dollars of my own money travelling the nation trying to stop the robocall epidemic.” Troutman said. “I didn’t wait for the government to do it form me. I saw a problem and I went out there and tried to solve it. As a result I’ve stopped more robocalls than any human being alive. But now I am trying to finish the job.”
California’s primary for Congressional District 47 is June 2, 2026.

Guidry Becomes the Firm's Fourth Partner Alongside World-Class Attorneys Eric J. Troutman, Puja J. Amin and Brittany A. Andres.
Irvine, CA
Powerful litigation attorney and former New Orleans prosecutor Tori L. Guidry–known as the “Dame” of complex litigation– has been elevated to partner after four years in Troutman Amin, LLP’s complex litigation department.
Guidry joined the firm in 2022 after years serving as a felony prosecutor and later a high-profile defense lawyer in New Orleans, Louisiana. Troutman Amin, LLP partners say she brings the grit and dogged determination of a true courtroom hero to the rarified world of complex federal court litigation.
“Tori is a total killer. We are a results oriented firm– only the win matters to us.” Troutman Amin, LLP partner Brittany A. Andres said of the elevation. “Tori has delivered win after win year after year. She’s a victory machine. So she is definitely right where she belongs at our side as a partner in this pack of killers we call a law firm.”
Amongst Guidry’s most notable victories include a decision changing how courts apply the TCPA to text messages, a win opening regulations on commercial speech, and an order striking entire classes from a TCPA complaint. Each of these victories saved her clients hundreds of millions of dollars in potential exposure.
“She’s just a hell of a lawyer. A true maniac. Totally relentless.” Says Troutman Amin, LLP partner Eric J. Troutman. “She never quits. Never stops. And if you get in her way she’s going to find a way around you or through you. It has just been a fantastic ride watching her put her incredible talent to use for the firm’s clients and now I get to call her my partner. Could not be prouder.”
But it isn’t just her prowess for winning in litigation that makes her valuable says firm founder Puja J. Amin– it is also her ability to bring people together and solve problems through meticulous attention to detail and wise negotiation.

“Tori has had a massive impact on the DNA of the firm. She’s a true team builder in addition to a monster litigator. She just has a knack for bringing people together so we can work together effectively no matter how tough things get.” Firm founder Puja J. Amin said of the elevation. “We just wouldn’t be who we are as a team without her– and that really make a difference in the high-stakes environment we occupy. There’s simply no way we could have delivered the consistently tremendous results the firm has delivered for its clients if it wasn’t for her. So happy to call her my partner.”
In typical Troutman Amin, LLP style the firm elevated Guidry to partner in public fashion– with all four partners executing an amended partnership agreement live during a recording of the firm’s popular Deserve to Win podcast.
Guidry signed the partnership agreement live during the recording.
“We just figured this was such a big moment that we’d want to preserve it on video for all of our clients and supports to share.” Troutman said of the event. “It really hit home in a big way for all of us and I think that comes through when you watch Episode 47 of Deserve to Win on the firm’s YouTube channel.”
Ultimately, however, Amin views Guidry’s elevation as validation of the firm’s vision and direction– as well as its penchant for rewarding loyal high performers.
“There’s nothing better than seeing hard work pay off.” Amin concludes. “I am so proud to run a firm where we not only deliver tremendous VALUE and consistent VICTORES to our clients but also take great care of our employees and reward their dedication and loyalty with appropriate elevations and recognition. Its all part of our famous ‘Deserve to Win’ culture that true winners always want to be a part of.”
Troutman Amin, LLP is a nationally recognized complex litigation and consultancy firm assisting companies with TCPA, CIPA, AI and data privacy issues and lawsuits nationwide. The firm has 12 lawyers in 3 offices and is credited with numerous first-in-the-nation results and victories for its clients.

Denver Homeowners Can Access Up to 90% of Their Home’s Value With No-PMI Cash-Out Refinance
Denver, COThe Home Loan Arranger’s Jason Ruedy says the high-LTV Colorado mortgage refinance that may close in as few as nine days and potentially reduce combined outgoing payments by $1,000, $2,000 or even $3,000 per month

Denver, CO
Denver homeowners struggling with rising credit-card payments, personal loans, automobile debt and other expensive monthly obligations may be sitting on a powerful financial resource: their home equity.
Jason Ruedy, president and CEO of The Home Loan Arranger and a leading Colorado mortgage professional with 33 years of industry experience, is highlighting a specialized Denver cash-out refinance program that may allow qualified homeowners to access up to 90% of their home’s appraised value—with no monthly private mortgage insurance.

Eligible transactions may also close in as few as nine days. Depending on the closing date and first-payment schedule, homeowners may defer up to two regularly scheduled mortgage payments during the transition to their new loan.
“For homeowners watching thousands of dollars leave their bank accounts every month, home equity may provide an opportunity to completely restructure those outgoing payments,” Ruedy said. “The goal is not simply to take cash out. The goal is to use that equity strategically to pay off expensive debt, simplify the household budget and potentially create meaningful monthly cash-flow relief.”
A Powerful Denver Debt-Consolidation Refinance
A cash-out refinance replaces a homeowner’s existing mortgage with a new, larger home loan. The new mortgage pays off the current loan, and the remaining proceeds—after applicable closing costs and other approved payoffs—are made available to the homeowner.
Qualified Denver homeowners may use cash-out refinance proceeds to consolidate:
- High-interest credit-card balances
- Personal and installment loans
- Automobile loans
- Home-improvement financing
- Medical bills
- Other qualifying monthly obligations
By replacing several separate debts and payments with one new mortgage, qualifying homeowners may be able to reduce their combined outgoing monthly obligations by $1,000, $2,000 or even $3,000.
“Imagine what an additional $2,000 or $3,000 in monthly cash flow could mean to a family,” Ruedy said. “That money could help rebuild savings, reduce financial stress and restore control over the household budget. The actual benefit depends on the numbers, but for the right homeowner, the difference can be substantial.”
Savings are not guaranteed. The Home Loan Arranger evaluates the homeowner’s existing mortgage payment, consumer debts, interest rates, remaining loan terms, proposed mortgage and closing costs to determine whether refinancing may improve the borrower’s overall monthly financial position.
Access Up to 90% Loan-to-Value Without Monthly PMI
Most standard conventional cash-out refinance programs limit homeowners to approximately 80% of their home’s appraised value. The specialized 90% LTV cash-out refinance may allow qualified borrowers to access significantly more equity.
Loan-to-value, commonly called LTV, compares the mortgage balance with the property’s appraised value. A 90% LTV mortgage may permit a total loan amount equal to as much as 90% of the home’s qualifying appraised value.
For example, a Denver home appraised at $800,000 could potentially support a new mortgage of up to $720,000 at 90% LTV, subject to the existing mortgage payoff, available equity, closing costs and program requirements.
Despite the higher loan-to-value ratio, qualifying borrowers may not be required to pay monthly private mortgage insurance.
“The ability to complete a cash-out refinance up to 90% LTV without adding monthly PMI is what makes this program different,” Ruedy said. “It may give Denver homeowners access to substantially more of their equity while avoiding another monthly insurance expense.”
The additional equity may be especially important for homeowners who do not have the 20% equity traditionally required for a conventional cash-out refinance without mortgage insurance.
Colorado Cash-Out Refinance Closing in as Few as Nine Days
The Home Loan Arranger may be able to close qualifying Denver and Colorado mortgage refinance transactions in as few as nine days.
Fast mortgage closings depend on the borrower promptly supplying a complete application and required documentation, as well as appraisal scheduling, title work, payoff statements, property eligibility and underwriting approval.
“When homeowners are trying to consolidate debt and lower their outgoing payments, they do not want to wait 30, 45 or 60 days,” Ruedy said. “With a qualified borrower, complete documentation and an eligible property, our team works aggressively to move the refinance from application to closing.”
A nine-day mortgage closing is not guaranteed, but it represents the company’s ability to expedite qualifying refinance transactions when all necessary conditions are satisfied.
Homeowners May Defer Up to Two Mortgage Payments
Depending on when the cash-out refinance closes and when the first payment on the new mortgage becomes due, a homeowner may experience a period in which up to two regularly scheduled mortgage payments are not immediately due.
The payments are not forgiven or eliminated. Accrued mortgage interest is accounted for through the refinance transaction and the terms of the new loan.
“The opportunity to defer up to two payments can provide temporary breathing room as the homeowner transitions into the new mortgage,” Ruedy said. “But homeowners need to understand that this is a timing benefit—not free money and not debt forgiveness.”
Borrowers must continue making payments on their existing mortgage unless they receive specific instructions from their mortgage professional and current loan servicer.
Cash-Out Refinance vs. HELOC or Home-Equity Loan
Denver homeowners researching how to access home equity frequently compare three options:
- A cash-out refinance
- A home-equity line of credit, or HELOC
- A fixed-rate home-equity loan
- A Denver cash-out refinance replaces the existing first mortgage with one new loan. A HELOC or home-equity loan generally creates a second mortgage while leaving the existing first mortgage in place.
Homeowners with a low first-mortgage interest rate may find that keeping the existing loan and adding a HELOC or home-equity loan is more advantageous. Others may benefit from replacing their current mortgage and consolidating multiple obligations through a single cash-out refinance.
“There is no universal answer,” Ruedy said. “The right choice depends on the homeowner’s current interest rate, mortgage balance, equity, credit profile, amount of cash needed and financial objectives. That is why every homeowner deserves a side-by-side comparison.”
More Than a Lower Mortgage Payment
A cash-out refinance may not lower the mortgage payment itself because the new loan could have a larger balance or a different interest rate. The potential financial benefit may come from lowering the homeowner’s combined outgoing payments after credit cards, automobile loans, personal loans and other qualifying obligations are paid at closing.
“The correct comparison is not just the old mortgage payment versus the new mortgage payment,” Ruedy explained. “Homeowners need to compare everything they are paying today against everything they will be paying after the refinance. That is where the potential $1,000, $2,000 or $3,000 monthly improvement may be found.”
The analysis should also consider closing costs, the new mortgage term and the total interest that may be paid over the life of the loan.

- The homeowner’s current combined outgoing payments
- The projected combined payments after refinancing
- Total lender fees and closing costs
- The loan term and total long-term financing expense
- The amount of cash the borrower will receive
- The scheduled first-payment date
“Homeowners should never make this decision based on an advertised rate alone,” Ruedy said. “The best mortgage refinance is the one that accomplishes the homeowner’s objective with competitive terms, transparent costs and a payment structure they can responsibly maintain.”
