Re: conference calls

There are no hard-and-fast rules on this. Some states laws may require disclosure.

If you knew you were "on speaker", then you probably did NOT have a legally enforceable "Expectation of privacy" in the phone conversation.

More specifics are needed to give proper advice. But realistically, what would you hope to "get" from complaining about this?

Has your reputation or business been harmed financially?

If so, find a lawyer to represent you.
