Background

Millions of Californians receive illegal commercial emails every year. Federal and state law provide a path to compensation.

The federal CAN-SPAM Act and California Business & Professions Code § 17529 et seq. establish strict requirements for commercial email. Senders must identify themselves honestly, include a functioning opt-out mechanism, use accurate subject lines, and provide a valid physical postal address. Emails that fail these requirements are illegal — and each one can give rise to a separate statutory claim.

Attorneys at Potter Handy, LLP are investigating claims on behalf of California residents who use Gmail or Outlook accounts and who have received commercial emails that do not comply with these laws. Eligible claimants may participate in class or mass action proceedings to recover statutory damages without needing to prove individual financial harm. If you consented to an AI-assisted scan of your inbox, that review can help document the scope and frequency of violations — strengthening your claim and reducing the burden on you personally.

You do not need to have suffered financial harm to bring a claim. California's anti-spam statute provides statutory damages for each qualifying violation — regardless of the economic impact on any individual recipient.

Any information you share during this case review — including your email address, inbox contents reviewed by AI, and contact details — is used solely to evaluate and pursue your potential claim. We do not sell, rent, or share your information with third parties. If you authorize an AI-assisted email scan, only summary data relevant to identifying unlawful commercial emails is retained; your personal correspondence is never read by human reviewers or disclosed in any filing without your consent.

Recoverable Damages

What compensation may be available.

Damages vary depending on the number and nature of violations documented. Common categories of recovery in anti-spam matters include:

Claims under California Business & Professions Code § 17529 et seq. and the federal CAN-SPAM Act may be pursued individually or as part of a class or mass action. Theories of liability include failure to provide a functioning opt-out, use of deceptive headers or subject lines, failure to include a valid physical postal address, and sending from disguised or misrepresented domain names. Statutory damages per violation can be significant when emails are sent at scale.
