Credit Repair That Actually Works!

Years ago, as part of my divorce I granted my ex-wife the house that we bought together while married and she assumed responsibility for it. At some point she started paying her mortgage late and that eventually found its way to my credit report (some company called PHH). Since it had nothing to do w...ith me, I disputed the account and submitted my divorce decree that clearly shows she assumed responsibility and I no longer have any interest in the house etc. the dispute was denied and come back verified. Frustrating since I had nothing to do with it but at the time I assumed I was stuck with it because in the eyes of creditors I was still on the hook for the debt (the house wasn’t refinanced out of my name at the time). There are several 180 days late and they are the only baddies left on my report. All this brought down my credit score to 522. I can’t thank PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST enough for taking my credit out of the garbage after my divorce. PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST has done such an amazing job to help me clear all the negative items and restore my credit score to 811. This company has been so professional and so amazing at keeping in touch with me every single step of the way. Explaining in detail exactly what needs to be done. Thank you PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST I will recommend their service to all my friends and family. Contact them via: [email protected] / +1 (409) 231-0041.

Unresponsive, overpriced, stay clear

Carrie Anne was my divorce attorney and I would not recommend her to anyone. Her hourly rate is extremely high, so it was hard to believe how she could be so unresponsive. She never answered or returned phone calls or emails. When she did reply to emails, the response was very brief, a few words or ...one sentence. She really just did not care. about me as a client. The office staff was constantly changing, so every time I called it was like speaking to them for the first time and I had to explain who I was. My whole experience with Carrie Anne Cavallo and her office was very frustrating and unprofessional.

Baffling

She seemed friendly enough, but her and her associates are ridiculously incompetent. Maybe I'm the exception, but their mistakes in my case are so egregious that I would never even consider hiring them for anything else. They were supposed to handle a simple garnishment case. I could have done it wit...h a few documents and a court appearance. The ONLY reason I hired a lawyer was because I couldn't figure out how to transfer my out-of-state divorce case to Brooklyn. I tried for months without success, and broke down and hired a lawyer. I figured I would let them do the whole thing. I figured how hard could that be? Drop-out teen moms file for garnishment every single day. $4600 later, I still don't have a garnishment order for child support because guess what? They left out the line about child support amount and wish to garnish on the stipulation of settlement. That's the single most important sentence they should have included. I pointed that out to them both at the court date and afterwards, but her associate, Karla George, kept insisting that the right amount was reflected somewhere else. She was dead wrong. How in the world can even a high school graduate make these mistakes, much less law school graduates? And did they rectify the situation? NO! When I complained, like a child, Carrie Anne told me that they don't work with people who think they're incompetent and told me to go find alternate counsel. My lawyer friend read the emails between myself and them and thinks that they are just as ridiculous as I do. He doesn't understand how they spent $4600 even if they did do everything right. The way they tried to blame the courts and me for their mistakes shows they have zero conscience.
