Secured creditor rights in California refer to the lawful remedies available to lenders who hold a security interest in collateral. These rights help protect the lender’s investment and provide a path to recovery when a borrower defaults. The exact remedies depend on the type of collateral and the terms of the security agreement, and they must be pursued in compliance with state and federal law.
