Hear from Our Clients

"I didn't know what to do, being sued is such a blindsiding experience. Calling Nick was the best decision I made. He took care of everything and was very capable, knowledgeable, and affordable. He worked with our budget! I will call this guy for everything!"– Patrice
"Nick did an amazing job guiding us through an identity theft scenario. He was highly responsive and gave clear guidance throughout. The debt collector stopped trying to collect from us and we got the fraudulent debt removed from our credit reports thanks to his persistence and expertise throughout the process. I can’t recommend him highly enough."– Bill
Did You Know? The Law is Here to Protect You

Laws protect you from corporate mistakes and fraud by giving you the right to fight against these silent crimes. With help, you can restore your good name, rebuild your credit, and get compensation for the bad business practices you’ve had to suffer through.

Debt collectors are prohibited from using abusive or harassing methods to collect a debt from you. You have the right to be treated fairly and respectfully, and to hold debt collectors accountable for any illegal actions they take.
If you are a victim of fraudulent charges or wire transfers, you have the right to seek a refund and potentially receive additional damages under the law.
Credit reporting errors can significantly impact your financial well-being. The law provides you with the right to dispute inaccurate information on your credit report and to seek compensation for any damages caused.
Hacking and scamming schemes can leave you financially devastated. However, the law offers protection and potential compensation for victims of such crimes.
Background check errors can have serious consequences for your employment and personal life. You have the right to seek legal remedies for any financial or emotional damages caused by inaccurate background checks.
