Lexington Law to remove items from credit report?

[nomoneynomore]

I have a friend who is wanting to use this law office to remove items from her credit report. https://www.lexingtonlaw.com/lp/mobi...-call-now.html

She says, "they send a letter out to each debt collector and they have thirty days to respond. Most companies won't respond so by law after 30 days they have to wipe the debt clean and put paid on your report. If you try to pay a debt off it can still show unpaid on your account for 7 years even if its paid."

Is this legit?

We were cautioned before, during and after our bankruptcy that these companies don't actually solve any credit report problems.

Thanks in advance!

Don't waste your money. You can do the same thing by yourself.

Lexington Law is well known and has a horrible reputation. I would advise your friend to stay far, far away from Lexington Law.

Not only can you do anything Lexington Law can do, as pointed as by LITR, but you can do more and you can do it better.

What usually happens when people ask about Lexington Law is that they ask about it, ignore what people tell them and sign up anyway, get very mediocre results, and then post about how to get rid of Lexington Law.

Ask them to show you where in the FCRA it states that. There is your answer. Stay away.

This doesn't make any sense to me.

Lending Tree put me on thir marketing list. the fact that they were pushier han a collection agency got my spidey senses tingling. They're not doing anything you can't do yourself.
