Connecticut Debt Relief Attorney Discusses If the Police are Notified of a Repossession

I am often asked as a Connecticut Debt Relief Attorney, if the police are notified prior to a car being repossessed.  Under Connecticut law, if your car is repossessed, it’s important to know that there are certain laws that a repossession company must follow for the repossession to be valid and legal. First, the repo company must notify the police department in advance that they are repossessing your car.  I advise clients as a Connecticut Debt Relief Attorney that this is so you don’t wake up the next morning and you contact the police department because you suspect the car’s been repossessed. Secondly, if during the repossession process there’s a breach of the peace or there’s damage to your property,that also is right in grounds to bring action against the repossession company and the original creditor potentially for losses and damages.
