Wrongful Auto Repossession

My SUV was wrongfully repossessed. A towing company took the vehicle from under my carport. The driver stated it was due to repo per the credit union. This vehicle was paid in full and I do have the title since 2005. They also attempted to take my other vehicle for the same reason. My deceased husband's son and attorney somehow got this done thru a collection agency, as we are going thru probate. The vehicles are community property, and are in my possession since my husband died. The towing company would not listen, I had to have a restraining order and pay bond to retrieve my vehicle. The police department were of no help as they said they were notified of the repo by the towing co. Also, they do not get involved in civil matters. My probate lawere handled the process of my retaining the vehicles temporarily. Can I sue the towing company in small claims court, my husband's children and attorney as I was without my vehicle for only a day, but I have lost wages & court & attorney fees over this matter. The towing company did not charge me, as they realized they moved too soon, but did not give me any repo paperwork, just a letter from a collection agency via an estate attorney. Also did they have a right to remove from drive
