About the DIY Credit Repair Toolkit
The first in the DIY Law Series™ is the DIY Credit Repair Toolkit™ that recognises that there is no reason why you cannot simply fix your own credit record and that doing this would not cost you anything but your time. Free credit repair is an option people should be encouraged to take as enlisting the services of a lawyer is not always essential.
The DIY Credit Repair Toolkit™ will allow you to successfully repair your own credit record as it provides you with clear and simple guidelines on how to fix it and improve your credit score. There are no tricks to repairing your credit record – only knowledge of the process and how it works.
