The Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 or FACTA or the FACT Act, amends the Fair Credit Reporting Act. And while FACTA does significantly change the obligations of credit bureaus and lenders as defined by the FCRA, it does not change the basic tenants and provisions of the FCRA.
There are thousands of FACTA related lawsuits filed each year and the need for FACTA expert witnesses is growing. In fact, many experts have predicted a continued increase in credit related lawsuits for years to come. This places additional demands for qualified FACTA expert witnesses. These experts must have a strong knowledge of the credit industry, how lenders operate, consumer reporting agencies, credit scoring, reinvestigation processes, and reasonable procedures.
“What makes for a great FACTA expert witness is his or her ability to help lawyers and consumers involved in FACTA lawsuits better understand the systems and tools used by the credit industry players. Knowledge of PACER, e-OSCAR, ACDVs, FICO Scores, AUDs, and Metro 2 are just a few examples of what sets a great FACTA expert witness apart from a less effective expert.” John Ulzheimer, Founder FACTAExpertWitness.com
The FACTA expert witnesses we employ are selected because of the time they've spent in the credit industry and the knowledge they now hold because of that experience.
