Helping Identity Theft Victims Reclaim Their Financial Lives
Identity theft can affect nearly every part of a person’s life, from credit reports and bank accounts to job opportunities and housing applications. Bolos Consumer Law helps Michigan consumers recover from identity theft, fix inaccurate reporting, and hold the companies responsible accountable.
Does This Sound Familiar?
A bank refusing to refund an unauthorized transfer
A loan or mortgage denied because of inaccurate information on your credit report.
An account on your credit reports that you did not open
Your credit report incorrectly lists you as deceased.
If any of this sounds familiar, it's not something to handle alone. Bolos Consumer Law helps consumers untangle these problems and get their financial lives back on track.
Areas of Focus
Bolos Consumer Law focuses on the financial and legal problems that flow from identity theft and credit reporting errors, whether that involves dealing with the fallout from fraudulently opened accounts, your bank's refusal to investigate your dispute, or inaccurate information on your credit reports and background checks.
Identity Theft & Credit Reporting
Identity theft typically infects someone's life in ways unimaginable. Bolos Consumer Law helps consumers challenge fraudulent accounts, correct resulting credit-reporting errors, and hold companies accountable when they fail to follow the law.
Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers
Unauthorized withdrawals, debit-card transactions, account takeovers, and electronic transfers you did not authorize can create serious financial problems. Federal law may provide protections for qualifying unauthorized electronic fund transfers, including requirements that may apply when a financial institution receives notice of an unauthorized transaction.
Credit Report Errors
Mixed files, deceased reporting errors, and inaccurate account information can affect credit, housing, and other important opportunities. Bolos Consumer Law helps consumers dispute inaccurate credit reporting and evaluates legal options when companies fail to comply with applicable consumer-protection laws.
Background Check Errors
A background check error can cost a job, an apartment, or an insurance policy. Bolos Consumer Law helps consumers dispute inaccurate background and screening reports and holds screening companies accountable for the harm they cause.
A Firm Built for Identity Theft Cases
Most consumer protection attorneys come to this work through the legal side alone. Bolos Consumer Law brings real experience in banking and financial systems along with years of legal work focused specifically on identity theft and credit reporting errors. That background provides a deeper understanding of how identity theft affects financial accounts and consumer reports—and how banks, credit bureaus, furnishers, and screening companies respond when something goes wrong.
Bolos Consumer Law is a Michigan firm built around a single focus. Identity theft and the financial harm it causes are at the center of the firm's practice. Clients come here because they need the problem fixed, not just explained.
