Biography
Blaine Dixon was born and raised in Clarksville, Tennessee. He attended Austin Peay State University where he majored in History and English, graduating in 1990. As an undergraduate Blaine studied on exchange in Oxford, UK, a time which would shape his worldview and spark a love of both travel and culture. While journeying solo through Europe, Blaine was fortunate enough to be present in Berlin the night the Berlin Wall came down. The images of passionate men and women standing courageously to demand and then embrace freedom would forever etch themselves into his conscience.
After college, Blaine worked for a large life insurance company where he saw firsthand the tremendous challenges faced by hard-working men and women. Blaine often witnessed families who, in spite of their hard work, were trapped in an endless cycle of credit card debt, struggling to make monthly interest payments and without the money or power to stand up to abusive debt collectors. Blaine realized that freedom was more than just a physical state of being, it was much more. Freedom is the opportunity and ability of people to dream, to work hard and ultimately to achieve their life goals.
Having witnessed his mother being harassed by an abusive debt collector while fighting cancer, Blaine discovered his passion to protect consumers. He decided to go to law school and attended the Nashville School of Law, earning his law degree in 2007 and soon thereafter being admitted to practice law in Tennessee.
Blaine believes exceptional relationships build the best lives. Exceptional relationships have the power to uplift and transform, empowering people to experience life at the highest possible level. For the past 12 years Blaine has worked hard to forge these relationships with clients, seeking to understand client needs while walking with them through often difficult circumstances to successfully achieve their goals.
Blaine fights to protect consumers who have suffered injury to their credit scores because of the negligence and recklessness of the “Big Three” credit reporting agencies. Millions of Americans are victims of inaccurate information contained in their consumer credit files. Consumers who are faced with inaccuracies in their credit reports face the risk of being turned down when applying for a mortgage, auto loan or other credit, or being forced to pay higher rates of interest. Individuals with inaccurate credit reports may even face the risk of losing security clearances, being unable to rent an apartment or home.
