How to recover from bad credit

What is the name of your state? VA

My 24-year-old nephew told me yesterday that his credit was destroyed by his father when he was in college. The father used his son's credit card to pay house mortgages. My nephew said he didn't do anything about the fraudulent use of his card because he couldn't bring himself to charge his father. Now his father is dead, but my nephew is left with the burden.

He has another year of college in order to finish, but the credit problems his father left him with continue to haunt him. what type of lawyer does he need to see? He works to finance his education, so money is very limited for him. What are his options and what is the best he can hope for?

If he let his father use his credit card, I don't see where he could do anything now. If he didn't let him, it needed to be reported then.

In fact, you are so astonishingly correct in this matter, it will not surprise us one bit if you are offered a generous settlement, because, by golly, that’s just how it should be.

You Rock,
