Most credit heroes send dispute letters and wait. But when bureaus fail to correct legitimate errors, the law allows consumers to sue. McCarthy Law has assisted over 150,000 clients with FCRA litigation at no cost to the consumer. Clients can recover between $1,000 and $2,500 in damages.

Ian walks through 10 specific violations his firm takes to court. These range from balances reporting on paid accounts to debts showing up after bankruptcy discharge. He also shares the dispute letter language his firm recommends and what separates a litigation-ready case from one that needs more documentation.
