Re: voluntary car reposession
If the father does nothing his credit will be as bad as his daughter. I suggest that legal counsel be retained because the lender can file a legal action for any deficiency after repossession of the vehicle. Such action will place father's assets at risk. Never guarantee another's loan. It can destroy and limit your credit rating.Gerald Hershenson Esq,
