Having your information appear on a LexisNexis report carries just as much weight as that information appearing on Experian, Equifax, or TransUnion.

As such, the information on their consumer credit report deserves your attention. Keep reading to learn more about LexisNexis and how to dispute any negative items they have listed for you.

If you spot a negative item on your LexisNexis credit report that you do not believe to be yours, then you need to dispute it and have it removed.

If you are having trouble disputing negative items on your , DoNotPay can help solve your problem.
