Mixed Credit

Six years ago, I contacted Mr. Sola in a desperate attempt to repair my credit. I had been trying, for at least 20 years, to follow the procedures the credit bureaus and collection agencies had set up to remove debts that were not mine. My credit was mixed with a woman of similar name, age, SSN, an...d we resided in the same city and state. She had multiple bankruptcies and never seems to pay a bill. I, on the other hand, had perfect credit if not for being mixed with hers. I go into the above detail because Mr. Sola took my case knowing I had boxes of records dating back over 20 years and needed to be reviewed. This case would not be easy. Even though I lived in another state from Mr. Sola, he kept me informed every step of the way and explained what was happening with my credit. It took many lawsuits to resolve all issues to date in my favor. As I stated, I tried in vain to correct my credit using their procedures. They would remove these debts but months or years later, they were put back on. I regret not contacting Mr. Sola sooner. I wasted a lot of years feeling helpless. No more! I know what to do now and if in the future I have other credit problems that I cannot resolve, I would not hesitate to contact Mr. Sola.

Assisted with Mixed File Credit Report

I was denied a mortgage because one of the big three merged my file with that of someone else who didn't have any similarities with me. Robert took my case. He spoke to me frequently and took the time to explain how these things happen. He answered all my questions and was extremely thorough in all h...is explanations. He explained the pros and cons and assisted me in my decision making on how to proceed. He was always available by phone or email. I literally spent hours on the phone with him. In my opinion, he's one of the country's best if not the best in his field. I highly recommend him.

Holding CRA's Accountable

In 1999 I became aware that I was a victim of identity theft. After jumping through all the required hoops for five years, a bank and two of the credit bureaus refused to remove the incorrect information associated with my name and credit report. I knew I needed help. I learned of Robert Sola through... a newspaper article and contacted him for counsel. He was able to speak with me right away. He was sensitive to my frustration and helped me to understand the process as we moved forward on the case. I found him to be very knowledgeable, timely and honest. Our communications were long distance, so I appreciated his availability when I had questions. A few years after winning that case I called Robert again when the credit bureaus put the false information back on my credit reports. Once again he showed his professionalism at its best and we won the second round. I highly recommend Robert Sola as someone who is reliable, trustworthy and who will work hard on your behalf.

Getting CRAs to report correct info

My credit reports were damaged by identity theft and despite many efforts, I was not able to get the information corrected on my own. I read about Robert Sola's success in the local newspaper--how fortunate, because I believe he is the best. Robert Sola ended up handling a total of 7 cases for me. ... At times, this had to be done long distance/internationally due to the nature of my work. Never did I feel that I was unable to contact Robert during that time, nor did I ever feel out of the loop. Robert has great knowledge in his field, he is a very practical in his suggestions--as a result I always felt properly counseled. We also were able to settle each case in a timely manner and without much fuss or difficulty. I highly recommend Robert Sola.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Robert Sola is a nationally recognized go to attorney for mixed file or id theft cases out of Portland. I am an experienced consumer rights attorney out of the Metro Atlanta area and have sought him out to assist in a case in which I have a client that has been financially and emotionally damaged as a result of his credit file being merged for a number of years with another person with a similar name and social. He would be an excellent call by both a victim or another attorney with a client that has a problem with a mixed credit file either for advice or as co-counsel."
