Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Indiana
Back in May 2013, my partner at the time helped me to purchase a car by getting the loan in her name. We are no longer together. I am the one and only one who makes payments on the loan, I have never been behind nor late and have every intention of continuing payments. I fear that she will take the car regardless, though she has verbally and via email agreed not to. Is there anything I can do to legally protect myself and not loose the car?

How is the car titled? That will answer the question of whether she can take it now or not. If it is titled in her sole name, she can execute an agreement to transfer title now, even if you do not yet actually change the title because the bank is still holding on to it.
