31 Questions Answered
- Q. Seeking legal help in WI to recover losses from an online scam.
- A: I would contact a WI consumer protection attorney. Many of us will offer a free consultation to review the facts. It's tough to get a full picture based on the facts presented (i.e. the full details of the online scam and how the funds were transferred) but I would give a WI consumer protection a call to review. As stated, there's a chance that the situation could fall within the Fair Credit Billing Act or the Electronic Funds Transfer Act but tough to determine without some more facts.
- Q. Help with identity theft affecting finances in Louisiana.
- A: I would consult with a consumer protection attorney immediately. Make sure to keep track of everything that has happened and everything that you've attempted to do to mitigate the identity theft thus far for the attorney to review. The attorney will likely want to review everything, along with the police report(s) and/or bank disputes. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns but I would contact one of us Justia consumer protection attorneys to review the situation.
- Q. Issues with Equifax credit report errors affecting financial activities and loan access, seeking advice on potential lawsuit.
- A: Contact a consumer protection attorney familiar with the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) to determine if there could be a case under the FCRA. If there is a case to be brought, there is a chance that the attorney would take the case with no money up front. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
