Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Nevada
I sold a scooter to a guy in las vegas. The scooter is in his possession however he still owes me $150 before I will sign over the title to him. We do not have a written agreement, just verbal. I live out of state and want to get my scooter back because he has failed to pay the remaining money and is ignoring my calls. Can I legally show up to his house with a police officer and get my scooter back?

In the absence of a written security agreement, Nevada law does not permit repossession, with or without law enforcement present. You have a small claims case remedy in the Township of Clark County, Nevada your debtor resides in. Your attorney can explain further.
