The Checklist You Need to Make Your Warning Impossible to Ignore.

"I used this exact method to organize my case after losing over $300k." Steven Chayer

DisputeVoice is built for one thing: turning what happened to you into a single, clear, searchable warning report that shows up on page one in search.

Think of it as Google Reviews, Facebook Groups, Nextdoor & Reddit on steroids. Instead of getting buried under new posts. DisputeVoice stays on top, warning the public 24/7.

What further sets DisputeVoice apart is that your warning report is grounded in real evidence, not just vague complaints.

Use this checklist to organize and gather the documents, messages, and screenshots that chronicle what they did to you, so your warning is clear, credible, and easy for others to trust.  https://disputevoice.com

For a strong report, try to have at least:

  • Something showing what was promised (contract, estimate, messages),
  • Something showing what you paid, and
  • Something showing what went wrong (photos, messages, inspector/contractor opinion).
Everything extra makes your warning clearer and more credible.

Reminder: You do not need every item listed below.
