You authorize CA to contact third parties on your behalf for the limited purpose of investigating your potential consumer law claims. “Third parties” include but are not limited to consumer reporting agencies, creditors, lenders, debt collectors, rental agencies, employers, courts, and law enforcement agencies.

CA’s Exclusive Investigative Period

For the duration of the Exclusive Investigative Period, you agree that you will not communicate with any other law firm or legal representative about your potential consumer law claim(s). You agree to forgo any previously scheduled consultation or case review until CA’s Exclusive Investigative Period concludes.

Fees and Costs Incurred During Exclusive Investigative Period

AppFolio Inc. Lawsuit - Protect Your Consumer Rights From False Reporting!

AppFolio Inc. is a third-party consumer reporting agency regulated by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), which requires agencies to ensure the maximum possible accuracy of consumer reports. However, AppFolio has repeatedly violated consumer rights by mixing up consumer information, reporting inaccurate data, and failing to properly verify records. These errors can lead to wrongful denials of housing and financial hardship. If AppFolio’s mistakes have negatively impacted you, you have the right to dispute errors and seek compensation. Contact us today for legal assistance in holding them accountable

REASONS FOR LITIGATION

AppFolio Dispute Can Be Ineffective. Contact Us To File An AppFolio Lawsuit Instead!

  • You’ve experienced financial losses and lost housing, or other opportunities because of the inaccurate AppFolio report.

  • You want to receive monetary compensation from AppFolio for providing false information to your potential landlord.

  • Your AppFolio dispute was unsuccessful, and you’re now seeking reliable, accurate consumer reports moving forward.

  • You want to protect your rights and make sure your tenant report is accurate for future credit, or housing applications.

Failed employment background check? We can help you correct the errors on your report.

To protect your consumer rights and correct inaccuracies in your background report, filing an FCRA lawsuit is the most effective option. Legal action in federal court is far more reliable than background check disputes, which can be time consuming or ignored. A successful lawsuit requires the reporting agency to compensate you for both emotional distress and financial losses caused by the inaccuracies. Such lawsuits are especially important because false information about you can be shared or sold to multiple reporting agencies, not just the one at fault. After winning your case, we will ensure the defendant notifies all parties who received your inaccurate report, guaranteeing all records are corrected and preventing further harm.

HOW IT WORKS

Steps to Take in Correcting Your Background Check

1

Step

Get Your AppFolio Report and Denial

In order to understand what happened with your report you will need to request a copy of it. If you got denied something you should also try to obtain a denial letter from the landlord that denied you.

2

Step

SCHEDULE A LEGAL REVIEW

Our experienced team of paralegals will thoroughly review your AppFolio report and denial notice, investigating the errors. We will assess the damages you ve suffered and guide you through the next steps.

3

Step

FILE A LAWSUIT

We file a lawsuit against AppFolio who made an error on your background check. We will demand the highest compensation for you and ensure your reports are accurate. Get justice today!

False information is often spread across multiple reporting companies. A background check dispute only addresses the issue on the surface and does not offer monetary compensation. Contact Consumer Attorneys to pursue a background checklawsuit, ensuring that all parties are notified of the inaccuracies and you receive the compensation you deserve.

REPUTATION FOR SUCCESS

We have proven success in class-action litigation, as well as the skills and resources needed for every case.

PASSIONATE CONSUMER ADVOCACY

We sue consumer reporting agencies for mistakes and collection agencies for FDCPA violations.

We understand the harm that big background reporting can do to innocent consumers. We also understand how difficult, expensive and emotionally draining it can be to untangle mistakes that weren't yours in the first place. Consumer Attorneys doesn't take a dime from its clients until we reach a settlement or a court decision in our clients’ favor.

Am I Entitled to Compensation?

We believe background reporting companies should be held accountable for the distress they put consumers through. The reputational damage, humiliation, lost wages, and non-budgeted spending that can stem from background check mistakes could make you eligible for compensation. If your rights were violated under the FCRA, you could win actual and/or statutory damages if your claim is successful. Consumer Attorneys will offer a free consultation where you’ll receive an estimate of how much your case is worth.

YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT...

Someone else’s files and information included on your background report.

Inclusion of damaging information in a background report, such as expunged records or arrests older than seven years not resulting in a conviction.

Erroneous records like incorrect criminal convictions, case dispositions, charge degrees, dates and etc.

Don’t fight background check companies alone. The volume of complaints received by these companies means more damaging mistakes are often made during the dispute process. Let us know if our experienced and empathetic attorneys can help you get the justice you deserve.

AppFolio Complaint Review - Contact Us!

You already know the consequences of false information in background reporting if you’re a victim of it. You can lose a job, be denied housing, or suddenly find yourself dropped by a company considering you for a role. Erroneous information in a background report can destroy your reputation in a moment.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Jason's testimonial

Jason

Washington

My LexisNexis report came back with an insurance claim from a company I didn’t even know. After my dispute didn’t work, I reached out to Consumer Attorneys for help. It turned out they had mistakenly added someone else’s claim to my report. Thanks to their expertise, we sued them for the error and for all the insurance denials I faced as a result. The compensation I received was fair, and I’m incredibly grateful for their support throughout the entire process.

Tori B's testimonial

All my ride share accounts were blocked due to Checkr reporting someone else information. The attorneys at Consumer Attorneys PLLC are exceptional in handling consumer protection cases. The paralegal staff was courteous and prompt in their responses, which made the entire stressful process much more bearable. I am profoundly grateful for their services. Thanks to their hard work, we sued Checkr and secured monetary compensation for the damages caused. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of expert legal assistance!
