Fair Credit Reporting Act

The Fair Credit Reporting Act is U.S. Federal Government legislation enacted to promote the accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies. It was intended to protect consumers from the willful and/or negligent inclusion of inaccurate information in their credit reports.

Credit Reporting Issues

Debt collectors often place the accounts they are trying to collect on your credit report. This hurts your credit score and may prevent you from obtaining a loan or getting credit. Debt collectors frequently place inaccurate information on credit reports. Placing inaccurate information on your credit report is a violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA). We can help you get this information corrected and will sue the debt collector on your behalf if they don’t fix their credit reporting. Sometimes the inaccurate reporting is the result of fraud or identity theft. We are experienced in fixing these types of issues.
