Re: automobile repo
Yes, as a co-signor on the orignal loan documents you would probably be legally liable for the deficiency balance on the loan. Your liability might depend upon whether or not the creditor complied with all applicable laws in conducting the repossession and resale of the vehicle. If I were you, I would consult with an attorney. Good luck.
