Where it stands (2026-09-07): FTC final decision and order issued January 14, 2025; DoNotPay owes monetary relief and must comply with notice, substantiation, reporting, and recordkeeping terms.

The FTC challenged DoNotPay’s “robot lawyer” and AI-lawyer claims as deceptive. The final order bars unsupported claims that its service acts like a lawyer or other professional, imposes $193,000 in monetary relief, and requires customer notice and compliance reporting.

Next expected: Compliance reports and customer-notice obligations under the final order.
