Inaccurate credit reporting can be traumatic

Attorneys A. Hugo Blankingship, III and Thomas B. Christiano lead a talented staff of skilled consumer protection legal professionals.  We know how to take legal action if your financial credit record, good name, or your transactional identity has been stolen or inaccurately reported.

We appreciate that trying to fix these problems can be traumatic and often the problems cannot be resolved if you attempt to do it yourself.  What took you years to establish can be gone in an instant.  It can significantly limit your ability to pursue happiness.  It can, but does not have to, take years to resolve.  Plus, you may be entitled to compensation for your damages.

Blankingship & Christiano, P.C. levels the playing field

Those who have harmed you financially, emotionally, and possibly physically have the resources to defend themselves.  They also have little or no incentive to help you, even when you are absolutely in the right, unless faced with the possibility of a lawsuit.

Our attorneys can—

• Assure accurate information is reported in your credit profile
• Stop unwarranted and illegal phone calls from debt collectors
• Get compensation from those responsible for losses whether they are financial, emotional, physical, or damage to your good name

We can help clients of brokers, bankers, lenders and real estate agents to clear erroneous information from their credit reports

Victims of identity theft and inaccurate credit reports can find it difficult, if not impossible, to obtain a mortgage loan or other form of credit.  Blankingship & Christiano, P.C. can assist your clients in disputing the erroneous information and thereafter taking appropriate legal action to clear their good name and credit.  We are not a credit repair organization, but can help clients send dispute letters to the proper entities and if that does not resolve the problem, to take aggressive legal action.  Based upon our experience, the dispute letters often have little effect in clearing erroneous information and must be followed by a well-drafted complaint.  While the process takes time, the results are generally very rewarding.  Your clients will be very appreciative for your recommendation and hopefully will continue to come back to you for all their future lending needs.
