The legal answer is that the process of disputing a debt is simple that for disputes. If your only dispute is that you do not want a litigate debt reported on your credit then you would not legally have the grounds for filing any disputes. If however, the debt is genuinely incorrect or not yours; then you should be able to Google "credit dispute" and find sample letters and instructions on the process of assuring that your credit report contains accurate information.
I would avoid any company or service that claims to "fix" your credit, as most of the time its just a scam, and they just send the same letters you can download off the internet for free.

7 years from the date of first delinquency
Hi, I am a bill collector by profession of 3 years and the only way they can put an account back on your credit file is if you sent in a dispute letter, they reviewed it and took it off your file, then after the investigation of the debt found you had no proof to show that the debt was satisfied. If they found the debt has been satisfied and you have proof or if the person who owes the debt is deceased and you have the death certificate, then I would contact the attorney general and they will make the credit bureau remove the debt off your file. But make sure that even though it's on your file, it doesn't have a satisfied marking because when debts are satisfied they will appear on your credit report as such. Hope this helps.

A charged off account is similar to a collection on your credit report. The creditor has written off the debt owed and closed the account. The debt is still valid though and can be collected on.
