Can I bring legal action to an attorney that promised to help me with credit repair, and has bounced?

Sage asked:


I paid $300 to an attorney that works with a real estate firm specializing in credit repair, by disputing and of such nature. He hasn’t done anything, he is now unable to be reached? Took my money and left but still around. Can I bring legal action to him? (His company states that he’s doing it on his own). I need a good attorney to help me out, what kind of attorney could help me in this case? Please help me.

Do I have a law suite against a credit repair company?

chance306 asked:


I recently signed up for credit repair through a company that said they could repair my credit in as little as three months i have seen no results. I recently read from the FTC that it is illegal for them to charge me with up front fees without following through on their end. I was referred to this company through a mortgage company. So is this a case or just S. O. L. ?

Are credit repair companies legit and do they really help?

kaley asked:


I am trying to raise my credit score quickly. Right now I am at 593-around 650 depending on agency. So, by paying off the 5 credit cards that I currently have(some with amounts ranging from 1,500-2,500), should that raise my credit score a great deal? If not, will a credit repair company help or are they just a scam?
