Summary
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - Unintentional DTPA violations result in economic damages, which cover the consumer's out-of-pocket financial losses. - A 'knowing' or 'intentional' DTPA violation can trigger treble damages, allowing a court to award up to three times the economic damages. - The exam will test your ability to identify keywords like 'knowingly' to correctly calculate maximum potential damages in a scenario. - Damages for mental anguish may also be awarded, but only when the deceptive act was committed knowingly or intentionally. - A consumer who prevails in a DTPA lawsuit is mandatorily entitled to the recovery of their reasonable attorney's fees and court costs.
