s. I hgilhy reco

ir company to ha
ve it removed. I
personally never
had a lien on my
credit report, b
ut I had some pr
etty bad things

ed. I have worke
d with two credi
t repair compani
es. First with L
exington Law, an
d let me tell yo
u, they were ter
rible. They char
ge you a monthly
fee, so they tak
e their sweet ti
me. I finally go
t fed up and can
celed.A friend r
eferred me to an
other company, U
nified Credit Se
rvices - and t
hey were great.
Their work is le
git and they get
it done quickly.
I wouldn't recom
