Repo agents must handle repossessions according to state and federal laws, they do not have free rein to use physical force or to make threats. If you believe the agent violated your rights, get in contact with us as soon as possible.Law Enforcement Involvement in Vehicle Repossession
If law enforcement is called to the scene of a vehicle repossession by either the agent or the borrower, their job is to keep the peace and protect all parties present. Police are not there to help the repo agent or threaten arrest of the borrower—taking a side likely means the officer has crossed the line.Required Notices After Vehicle Repo
Following the repossession of a vehicle, the lender must send the borrower two notices: 1) a Notice of Intent to Sell Property with a specified period of time and terms to get the vehicle back and 2) a Deficiency Notice with confirmation of vehicle sale and remaining balance if any. Both of these notices should be evaluated by a legal team with wrongful repo experience.
What Happens After Vehicle Repossession?
If your automobile has been repossessed, you should first contact your lender or local police to confirm that the vehicle was repossessed and not stolen and to get the name and location of the repo agent. Gather all the purchase and loan documents for your vehicle. After the repossession, the lender is required to promptly provide the borrower with a Repossession Notice (or ‘Notice of Intent to Sell Property’.) Document the scene with photos, video, evidence and witness statements if there was any altercation, police involvement or other Breach of the Peace.Finally, get a team on your side with over 30 years of experience in protecting consumer’s rights in the repossession process. When you contact us, we’ll provide you with a no cost case evaluation, and if we accept your case, there will be no out of pocket expense to you. Remember, even if you fell behind on your payments, you still have important legal rights, and the law still limits what the lender and the repo man can and must do.
Sued by Auto Lender Following Vehicle Repossession
If the bank or finance company feels there is still a balance due after the sale of a repossessed vehicle, the lender may choose to use a collection agency or collection law firm to pursue the remaining balance claimed. All collection contact from such firms must adhere to federal law and state laws restricting collection activity. These laws protect consumers from improper or overly aggressive collection tactics, whether or not the debt is owed.If the lender decides to file a lawsuit against you, do not ignore it. Not showing up in court could result in a default judgment ordered against you for the full balance sought. This would allow the lender to take steps to collect, such as attachment of bank accounts or placement of a lien on your property. Instead, hire a team that understands consumer rights and the laws surrounding vehicle repossessions to aggressively pursue your rights in court.
