In my state the repo man cannot move or touch another car even if it is in the way, you should haul them off to court for trespass and disturbing the peace. These are two of the many things I did to protect my rights and be repaid for the liability and or damage, done on me. I am no lawyer but I did this and it worked for me. I found out that the repo man was a contractor and did not have the correct permission to do anything to me whatsoever. The debt was sold to another collector for pennies on the dollar. In my case my credit report said written off as bad debt, I found out that this was an IRS filing of loss of an asset, therefore I expect that they got a break from the IRS, I reasoned this to be that they have collected on the bad debt and sold the asset to a third party. I am dealing with this third party now.

Maybe you should just pay for the car? I dont have much use for attorneys or feel the need to "haul them off to court" My post was not intended to support your cause I was just commenting on repo men and their tactics. The damage I did to that tow rig was around $4500 based on what I know about truck and equipment repairs. The owner of the tow company called me the next day to see about what he could do to fix my service truck and wanted to know what I could do to fix his tow rig. Needless to say it was hilarious, I put him on the speaker so our staff coulf hear this guy ramble on about the unfourtunate situation and how things should have been handled in a differnt manner and could you pay for the repairs on my tow rig. I told him that as far as I knew the damage was pre existing! This guy lost his mind on the phone and started cussing me and blaming everything on my refusal to obey an order for reposession!
It is a great story and sometimes we tell it and laugh our asses off.
