Walk It Through: The Tow Truck at Night

A car on an installment contract, a repossession in the dark, fifteen days to get it back, and a sale after.

Behind on payments under a retail installment contract, a buyer hears a tow truck in the driveway at night.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

A car bought on a retail installment contract and retaken without a prior notice of intention to retake. A lease, a title loan and the deficiency after the sale are left to the page.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
