  • Non-judgmental.

    You were very open and answered all of my questions. You never made me feel like I was asking a dumb question. I was comfortable with your knowledge of the law. It was hard for me to make this decision to move forward in my life. Everyone was friendly to me and respectful. Non-judgmental. Every question I asked was answered promptly and appropriately. I would recommend you.

  • More Than Expected!

    I found the firm's representation to be more than what I expected. I was always kept in the loop, all my questions were answered (whether or not I asked more than once the same question), and I felt completely supported by the firm staff when going through this (at times) scary ordeal. Thank you again.

Free Credit Freezes

Beginning on September 21st, 2018 a new federal law called the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act will go into effect. This law has many components, but one interesting attribute is the ability to freeze one’s credit for free. A credit freeze makes it impossible to access one’s credit report. This makes it impossible for identity thieves to open fraudulent accounts while the credit is frozen.

Starting September 21st, all three credit reporting agencies will be required to add portals to their web pages that allow consumers to freeze their credit reports for free. In addition, pin numbers will be given so that the freeze can be lifted at any time. That being said, if you intend to freeze your credit, it is best to freeze it with all three agencies. Only freezing one or two agencies is the equivalent of locking the front door, but leaving the windows open.

This new law also makes it possible for parents, of children under 16, to freeze their children’s credit to protect them from identity theft as well.

Eliminating the fees arose from legislation that was signed into law about eight months after Equifax revealed its consumer database had been breached in a criminal cyberattack. In the cyber attack the private data of over 148 million consumers had been breached.

If you have recently checked your own credit and are feeling buried in debt, call your Fairfield bankruptcy attorney.
