A true civil legal aid success story
“Tamara” was a law-abiding citizen who wanted a job. Little did she know her identity had been used as an alias by a family member engaged in criminal activity.
When Tamara was denied an interview due to her “criminal record,” a Legal Action of Wisconsin attorney investigated, found the truth, and helped Tamara submit a form and fingerprints to the Department of Justice.
The department verified the identity theft and removed the misinformation, leaving Tamara’s record free, clear, and accurate.
