Todd Stern
CEO
CEO and president of Nationwide Credit Clearing, Inc. is a leader in the credit repair industry. Todd founded the company in 1986 after noticing inaccurate information on his own credit report. He searched extensively, but was unsuccessful in finding someone to help correct this problem. After having no luck, he started to work on his own credit report with the assistance of one of his lawyer friends. After learning the laws of the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Todd was able to correct the errors on his credit report. This experience made him recognize a need for this type of service and to launch Nationwide Credit Clearing.
Since the very beginning, the mission of Nationwide Credit Clearing has been to help consumers get their credit fixed and back on track. Nationwide Credit Clearing has helped thousands of consumers and has become one of the largest credit repair companies in the country.
Todd has been featured on the cable show “Fox Thing in the Morning” and is the host of the popular TV show “Credit Talk,” a weekly live call-in show in Chicago. In 2011, he introduced a program of providing free credit reports and free consultations. This innovation has proved to be a success with all of our clients.
