Your Credit Is A Doorway To A Better Future

In case you haven’t realized this already, your credit score is absolutely essential to a more stable financial future. Applying for loans, housing, jobs… it’s all possible with a good credit score – and difficult to achieve without one.

Unfortunately, a low credit score bars you from many financial milestones. If you’re unsure about your credit, or you’d like some way to salvage your credit score, there’s way to find out where you stand. A Connecticut debtor rights attorney from our office can help you fight to clear your name, but it’s important to know whether your credit has been incorrectly downgraded in the first place.

Understanding The Fair Credit Reporting Act

Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you have a right to view your credit score. This is helpful: knowing your credit score means knowing whether you can get that loan or house you’ve been looking for. But the Fair Credit Reporting Act also grants you the right to dispute any incorrect information about your credit as well.

A credit reporting agency shouldn’t provide incorrect information about your credit score, but it does happen. Unfortunately, if incorrect credit information is presented to potential creditors, they may refuse to hear you out. It’s all the more reason to lawyer up.

What Are Some Examples Of Incorrect Credit Information?

There are rules about what a credit reporting agency can and can’t mention. For example, anything older than 7 years is considered outdated information, and a credit reporting agency isn’t supposed to report on it. Additionally, if you were a victim of identity theft, your credit information should be kept under wraps until your case is all sorted out.

If a credit reporting agency provides incorrect credit information, it may mean losing out on loans, housing, and even job opportunities. Fortunately, the right lawyer can help you dispute the contents of your credit report.
