Repossession and recovery involve notice requirements, deadlines, and options for resolving disputes without a full trial.

We explain rights, timelines, and potential settlement paths to help you decide the best course.

Definition and Explanation

Repossession is the process of reclaiming property when a borrower fails to meet a loan obligation; recovery focuses on obtaining owed funds or returning collateral.
