Q: Unlawful car impoundment and auction in Oklahoma with no notification.
I found out my car was auctioned when I contacted local tow companies after it was unlawfully impounded in Oklahoma without any notification. The towing company refused to provide me with information about the auction. Everything I owned was in the car, and I have not received any compensation or further details. What legal actions can I take in this situation?
A: Contact an attorney to help you with this. Tow companies very rarely 'unlawfully' impound a vehicle, and therefore you will have to first prove that as the first step. Then after you prove that, then your next course of action will then develop. All these steps are beyond this forum.
