The firm encourages consumers to follow these steps: - check whether you were impacted: https://www.equifaxsecurity2017.com/potential-impact/
- check your credit reports now -- this data breach happened several months ago; an ID thief may have stolen your information already and used it to access credit in your name
- if your reports do not show any unfamiliar accounts, continue to check your credit reports on a regular basis
- if you do find unfamiliar accounts on your report, contact us immediately
- our firm can guide you through the dispute process
- when that process fails, we represent consumers -- on a contingency basis -- to obtain a permanently corrected report and compensation.
