Posted by Janice Bonne | August 13, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Credit Repair

CREDIT SCORE RAISED BY 241 POINTS

So, I was in the process of rebuilding my credit. I was in the upper 500’s and after a lot of research I decided to go ahead and take a chance at contacting [email protected] even though many people didn’t believe in credit repair companies. I am a living witness that contacting PINN...ACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST will raise your credit score. I am now at 802, 7 collections have been deleted. Good luck to anyone going down the same road I am. Let them know Janice Bonne referred you.

Beyond impressed.

Lindsey and his team went above and beyond to help me with anything that I needed. They were SO kind with any questions, concerns, or simple requests that I had. The entire team was open to communication and they were driven to complete this as soon as they possibly could. I would recommend Lindse...y Haugen to anyone who is new to the courts and what situations arise from them, or someone who needs a lawyer for legal advice/criminal charges. As the title says, I was BEYOND impressed with how Lindsey Haugen handled himself and how driven he seemed to get everything done way ahead of schedule. He has the experience needed to get great results, and he has multiple people backing him as well. I would highly suggest him for any of your legal needs.

"Lindsey has extensive knowledge of criminal procedure. If you want proof of that look no further than the hundreds of people he has helped by answering their questions on AVVO. There are other lawyers out there that also have this knowledge. What sets Lindsey apart from others is his excellent communication style and willingness to provide personal service. When I communicate with his office he responds quickly. Bottom line, If I had a friend or family member in need and they were in the Fargo/Moorhead area, they would receive a personal referral to Lindsey."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
