Legal Question in Consumer Law in Missouri

We called a business to tow an rv and diagnos the problem with it. The rv was damaged in tow. They billed for work they did not do and the tow that damaged the rv. We had it towed off their lot in the middle of the day and when we left town they stole it and brought it back to their lot.They also negatively influenced the outcome of the insurance settlement. Can I sue them? I don't mean in small claims court I mean sue them as big as the trouble they have caused?

If they damaged the RV, you may sue for that damage. Whether you will win, will depend upon your evidence and any agreements or waivers you may have signed. It i sless clear if you can sue for the retaking of teh RV. You might successfully sue for that, but it unlcear whay yru dages would be. If they purposefully mad false statements tht negatively effected the interaction between you and yrou insurer, then you might also succesfully sue for that. If you do nto sue, you might be able to raise the damage to the RV as adefense to the tow lot's suit for the cots of the tow adn storage.

All these potential causes of action are factually driven. Get advice more specific to the facts of your case before you decide what to do. You could meet personally with an attorney in your area. Let them see all the docuemnts and pictures that you have, and let them ask you follow-up questions. Many attorneys offer a free or low cost initial consultation.

Good luck
