Nisan Zaghi
Nisan Zaghi is an Associate Attorney at Consumer Attorneys whose practice is dedicated to protecting consumers from credit-reporting errors, unfair debt-collection practices, and background-check inaccuracies under statutes such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. Before joining the firm, he sharpened his litigation skills at a boutique patent-litigation practice and later represented individuals in consumer-protection cases, gaining a valuable mix of technical insight and client-focused strategy.
Nisan is motivated by the belief that businesses must be held accountable when they cut corners or defraud everyday people. Restoring a client’s reputation - and often their livelihood - gives him genuine professional satisfaction. To deliver the best possible client experience, he stays readily available, answers questions promptly, and keeps each client fully informed as their case unfolds.
He earned his J.D. from Fordham University School of Law on a substantial scholarship and holds a B.S. in Biology from Brooklyn College, where research-heavy coursework honed the analytical mindset he brings to complex credit-report disputes. Admitted to practice in New York and New Jersey state courts and in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, he is positioned to litigate most consumer-protection claims arising in the Northeast. Nisan is an active member of the New York State Bar Association, staying current on developments in consumer law and collaborating with advocates across the state.
Outside the office, Nisan enjoys hiking, swimming, and spending quality time with his wife and children - pursuits that keep him grounded and energized for his clients’ battles.

See moreMixed identity errors - also known as "mixed files" - occur when a consumer's credit report contains information belonging to someone else. These errors can result in credit reports showing unpaid debts, bankruptcies, or unfamiliar addresses, even when the consumer has no connection to these records. For thousands of Americans each year, mixed identity errors cause financial hardship, job loss, and personal stress.
See moreA wrongful deceased status typically originates from errors at the Social Security Administration, creditors, or credit bureaus. An SSA data mix-up - such as a mistyped Social Security number or name - can incorrectly trigger death notices across financial systems. Creditors sometimes misreport a customer as deceased due to clerical mistakes during account servicing or after a customer dies and joint accounts are involved. Even when creditors provide accurate data, credit bureaus like Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion can mistakenly apply a deceased flag to the wrong file, especially when people share similar identifying information. Once a “deceased indicator” is attached, automated systems across industries rapidly cut off access, amplifying the damage.
