Over the course of six…read morethoughtful and intentional sessions, she helped strengthen not only our finances, but also our mindset and confidence around money. With each meeting, we made meaningful progress. Michelle helped us see clearly where our spending was going and guided us in creating a realistic, sustainable budget that still allows us to enjoy our lives while saving toward our biggest goal--purchasing our dream home. What once felt far off now feels achievable much sooner than we expected. Perhaps the most valuable part of the experience was the confidence and clarity Michelle helped us build as a couple. Our conversations around finances are now more productive, aligned, and positive than ever before. We're only a week out from our final session, and already feel the impact of the work we did together. I'm excited to look back in 3 months, 6 months, and a year from now and see how far we've come thanks to Michelle's guidance. I can't recommend her highly enough.

I can't believe that I became a victim of identity theft. I didn't think that this could happen to…read moreme. I was hopeless with no direction about this until I found out about Credit Law Solutions. Everything was on hold until I could find someone to help me erase these stains on my credit that I didn't even do! My friend referred me to them because they had just helped him fix his credit so he could get his loan. So I made the call and got really good advice in general about credit building, and they assured me that my credit would be back up shortly. Wow, it's hard to believe that this happens really fast. This company moves fast and started knocking off negative items on my credit report within weeks. With the credit knowledge and tips they gave me I was also able to bump my score up a bit . Now keep in mind four years ago my score was over 720 and I was able to get my way with car rates, credits cards, and even buying my house at a super low interest rate. I can tell you it's not the same with a 615 score. When my lease was up, I tried going back to the dealership to purchase my new car and they tried getting me with a higher interest loan. After my consultation with the guys over at Credit Law Solutions, I spoke with a credit specialist, who then assigned me to my personal case manager. Everyone I spoke with was really helpful and polite. Then a month in, I started receiving good responses and my score started climbing back. My score in November was 615. Today my score has jumped a full 100+ points up! Yes, that means today my score is right back to where I was at prior to this whole ordeal and get this, my credit is still going up! Overall I want to thank the whole company for getting my credit back to normal plus a big improvement in my spending habits/payment allocation education. Now grateful too that all the banks are now willing to lend me money at a low rate! Thanks to Steve, Andy, Ben, and everyone else that helped on my case!

From the start, Kyle was thorough and patient.
