The Fair Credit Reporting Act was designed to protect consumers by giving them ready access to their credit report and other financial information. In today's challenging economy, many employers, loan agencies and housing agencies rely heavily on an individual's credit history and credit score. An error here can be devastating to both your personal life and professional life.
At Ledford & Wu, our skilled Illinois bankruptcy lawyers not only guide their clients through the process of filing for bankruptcy, but also work to ensure they have the tools necessary to protect themselves in the future.
Chicago Bankruptcy Law Firm
Issues such as inaccurate reporting, identity theft and unauthorized disclosure of a credit score can be monitored by vigilant individuals. By keeping careful track of your credit score and regularly examining your credit report, it is possible to protect yourself from fraud or errors. We encourage our clients to get a free credit report at least once per year from each of the three main reporting agencies — TransUnion, Equifax and Experian. It is also important to examine these documents for any errors and keep records of all reports and communication. Our attorneys can answer any questions you have through a free consultation at any of our area offices.
