Frequently asked questions
Do you serve clients across Florida?
Yes. We serve clients statewide. A free consultation helps you understand priorities and next steps. (Leon County, Florida)
How long does it take to see progress?
Many people notice early changes within 1–3 months, but timelines vary based on what’s reporting and how quickly updates post.
Do you guarantee deletions or score increases?
No. No one can legitimately promise deletions, approvals, exact score jumps, or timelines. We focus on accuracy, documentation, and consistent follow-through.
Will disputing hurt my score?
Disputing itself is not typically a scoring factor. Score movement depends on what changes on the report and how your utilization and payment history evolve.

Utilization often moves scores faster than other factors. Lowering reported balances and managing timing can help while disputes are in motion.
