She has bad credit with no possible co-signer for a refinance, I just want this car loan off me as fast as possible as it is causing issues in my new relationship.
answered on Jan 5, 2018
You may be stuck unless she can refinance the loan. The lender will not release you until the loan is paid off. Maybe the car should be sold to pay off the loan.

I would suggest offering to credit their bill in exchange for a full and final release of liability for the damages ie death of their dog. I can draft such a document.

My wife and I were test driving a vehicle that we had a licensed broker pick up for us to show us the car.

Unless you or your broker had a contractual arrangement to hold on the sale of the vehicle, the dealership can sell a car that is not on the lot and/or is being test driven. If the dealership "sold" the car without really selling the car to simply prevent the broker from forcing a... View More

You will need to take them to court. This likely can be handled in small claims court. The forms can be found at the CO Courts webpage. A lawyer can assist (or wholly handle) this matter, but a lawyer is not required (esp. for small claims cases). Prior to filing it may be advisable to send a... View More
I've read all over the Internet that they cannot do that but nothing states whether or not that is true in Colorado I would like to know before I go and try to resolve it.

No, you cannot be charged for retrieving personal property from a repo-ed vehicle. The items cannot be removed or collected (up to a time limit of presumed abandonment). If it is a problem, send a certified letter requesting the materials back. If this fails, contact the state AG's office.

Divorces can significantly impact the income, expenses, and ownership of marital property. Since you are still married, both parties' property is potentially still part of the marital estate and subject to division. Overlap the differences in state law (e.g. CA is a community property state)... View More

You should contact a real estate attorney. Based on your facts there is a significant possibility that the title company is liable for the warranty amount, but an attorney will need to review all the documents to make sure. Since this involves litigation (and not just asking free advice) you should... View More

My name is on the lease agreement, however I am not the co-signer. My credit is in good standing, but I have heard that a default on rent payments is very negative towards credit score. Is this true, or will my credit score be unaffected since the co-signer is obligated to pay the remaining rent... View More

Any non-payment (when reported) will negatively impact your credit score, just like any payment on time will beneficially impact your score. If the rent is paid (it does not matter who paid it) there should be nothing to report. If there is a non-payment, this can be reported. It is a wholly... View More

I'm confused. Are you asking about notice to terminate a lease or are you asking about the reservation fee? Resubmit your question.

My ex left his gun with my brother. Me and my ex broke up 8 years ago. My ex is now asking about his gun, but my brother got rid of it. The gun was registered in my exes name.

Since guns are registered, the 5 year limitation likely does not apply. While it is debatable whether you are under a legal obligation to return the gun... View More

You may well have a possible defamation or similar case, so I'd suggest you contact a member of the Colorado Assn for Justice--they give free consults.
