Brian Colombana

Brian Colombana is an independent telecommunications systems architect, TCPA defense consultant, and regulatory technical advisor. Combining decades of hands-on carrier VoIP architecture with high-stakes regulatory insight, he advises enterprise outbound organizations, contact centers, and telecom platforms on TCPA litigation defense, FTC robocall mitigation rules, and state-level compliance frameworks (including California consumer protection and telephony mandates). Brian has also provided specialized telecommunications consulting to federal law enforcement and regulatory agencies—including the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)—to dissect fraudulent telephony networks, trace illicit caller-ID spoofing syndicates, and shut down international phone scams.

High-Stakes Regulatory & Litigation Defense

Having navigated complex regulatory environments and administrative enforcement landscapes in California and nationally, Brian brings a battle-tested understanding of regulatory inquiries, FTC / FCC enforcement mechanisms, and plaintiffs-bar litigation tactics under the TCPA. He works directly with executive leadership, general counsel, and litigation defense teams to provide technical clarity, compliance proof, and expert witness diagnostics that protect businesses from catastrophic liability.

Based between North and South America, Brian delivers advisory consultations and technical engineering coaching in both English and Spanish.
