The Northern District of Georgia (Atlanta) has been one of the busiest federal courts in America for TCPA and DNC lawsuits throughout 2025 — regularly posting 70–100+ filings per month.
Georgia Senate Bill 73 (effective 2024) supercharged consumer protections by removing statutory damage caps, eliminating the "knowing" requirement for enhanced penalties, and expanding vicarious liability for brands using shady lead generators.
2025 Trends in Georgia
- Class actions dominating — nearly 75–80% of filings seek class-wide relief.
- Vicarious liability surge — companies held responsible for vendor calls they never made.
- Text messaging crackdown — Georgia courts increasingly treat illegal texts as TCPA violations.
What Georgia Consumers Should Do
- Register on the National DNC Registry — Georgia enforces it aggressively alongside SB 73.
- Document every call and text with timestamps and caller numbers.
- Note whether the caller left a prerecorded message — easier to prosecute.
- Explore both individual and class action options; the Northern District is favorable for both.
