Secured creditor rights refer to the legal authority a lender has when there is a recorded security interest in collateral. When a borrower defaults, those rights guide how the creditor may enforce the loan, protect collateral, and seek repayment.
Key elements include a valid security agreement, perfected liens, notice requirements, and an enforceable plan for collection or disposition of collateral. The process typically moves from documentation to enforcement steps and, when needed, judgment and post judgment remedies.
This glossary explains common terms used in secured creditor rights and the collection process.
