Keller Williams has settled its class-action lawsuit to the tune of $40 million. The lawsuit alleged the brokerage made unsolicited, pre-recorded calls to consumers without their consent—violating the Telephone Consumers Protection Act.
In June 2022, plaintiff Beverly DeShay filed the claim, citing the 1991 law designed to protect consumers against unsolicited telemarketing calls.
According to Inman, as part of the settlement, Keller Williams denies any wrongdoing or liability. About 2 million people may be eligible to receive payments of up to $20 each as part of the agreement.
In order to be eligible, potential claimants must have, been contacted by or on behalf of Keller Wiliams between May 2, 2014-December 12, 2022 without their consent.
