Repossession is the process of reclaiming property or securing payments when a borrower defaults on a loan or credit agreement.
Recovery involves strategies to recover losses while staying within state and local laws, including notice requirements, timelines, and potential defenses.
In California, repossession and recovery operate within a framework of statutes and regulations designed to balance creditor remedies with consumer protections. Our firm helps you understand how these rules apply to your situation.
Key steps include evaluation of collateral, notice and demand, security interest perfection, lawful repossession methods, and proper disposition of collateral to minimize losses.
Common terms you may encounter include default, notice, lien, repossession, and disposition.
Default occurs when a borrower fails to meet the terms of the agreement, triggering possible remedies for creditors.
