Protection For Consumers
The Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) is a federal law that ensures accuracy, fairness, and privacy of consumer information contained in the files of consumer reporting agencies. This means you can insist that your credit report completely and accurately reflects your credit history and ensure that only authorized parties can view it.
If you lost a job, loan, or other opportunity due to incorrect information in your credit report, you can benefit from the many remedies provided by the FCRA. In general, you can benefit from these remedies if you:
- Discover someone has got access to your private information without your approval
- Notice unfamiliar accounts
- Find signs of identity theft
- Realize that another person’s data is in your credit report
- Notice incorrect entries by credit furnishers and creditors
- Find old or obsolete information and more
Employers, lenders, landlords, and creditors often rely on credit reports from major reporting agencies when making decisions. These agencies collect details about your financial history and sell them to businesses that use the information to screen applicants. When errors appear, your future can be unfairly impacted. The lawyers at Fowkes & Hasanbasic can help.

Fair Credit Reporting Act Lawyers
When credit reporting agencies or creditors make mistakes, the results can be devastating — and often, consumers don’t even realize their rights are being violated. Some of the most frequent FCRA issues include:
- Mixed Files: Your report shows accounts or debts that belong to someone else.
- Unverified Information: A creditor reports false or incomplete details.
- Ignored Disputes: Agencies fail to properly investigate errors you report.
- Outdated Entries: Old debts or resolved issues remain on your report.
Each of these situations can cost you opportunities — whether it’s securing housing, getting a loan, or being approved for a job.
That’s where legal action makes a difference. At Fowkes & Hasanbasic, we don’t just correct the record — we fight to hold agencies and creditors accountable, and we work to recover damages on your behalf.
