From Corporate Defense Attorney to Consumer Robocall Advocate
Laurence was born and raised in County Wexford, Ireland. He studied law and business at University College Dublin, graduating summa cum laude, and spent an exchange year in Belgium studying European Business Law in French. He was admitted to the New York bar in 2009.
His first job as a lawyer was on the other side of the table. From 2009 to 2010, he was an associate at Wilbraham, Lawler & Buba, doing insurance-defense products liability work. The clients were corporations and their insurers. The job was finding the weak points in the claims people brought against them.
That experience shapes how this site is written. Companies sued under the TCPA almost always raise the same defenses: you consented, we did not use an autodialer, someone else made the calls, or you cannot prove how many calls there were. Knowing how a defense lawyer reads a file is why the pages here push you to document early and be honest about weak spots.
Banville Law
Laurence has been Managing Partner of Banville Law since 2015. The firm’s legal name is Banville Law, PLLC, and its office is at 520 White Plains Road #500 in Tarrytown, New York.
The TCPA lawyer page explains how that works for cases filed outside New York and D.C.
Outside his law practice, Laurence is an entrepreneur who has built and sold businesses and now advises small business owners on putting AI to work. More about that side of his work is at LaurenceBanville.com.
Providing Clarity For Robocall Lawsuits
Most people who get illegal robocalls never find out that the law gives them a claim. Those who search for answers tend to find either sales pitches or legal text without translation. This site exists to close that gap: the actual rule, in plain English, with the statute or regulation cited so you can check it yourself.
The site follows three rules. Every number and deadline links to a primary source, such as the statute, the FCC’s rules, a court opinion, or a settlement administrator’s website. Nothing is stated about a company that a public record does not show.
