You'll need to follow the procedure for making a claim against the political entity that towed you--town, borough, county etc.
Start by making a claim.towing and storage tend to be (legal) scams.
I spent over $2000 to have my car fixed and they not only made it worse they didn't fix it properly. I put a dispute in with my bank car but they denied it after two and a half months. Can I still take them to civil court?

This isn't so much a legal question as a question for the loan provider. They may be willing to swap cosigners, if her husband will sign. They certainly don't have to do so.

It depends upon the terms of your policy, but I would be asking the landlord's insurance to pay up before my own.
EDIT: "IN A residential rental contract in Ohio?"
In 2010 a lender marked me as being deceased and never sent me a bill. In 2015 I tried to refinance my home and found out about this issue. I called the lender to have it fixed and they promised me they would take care of it and since they wrote off the debt I'm not responsible for it. 2016 I... View More

What kind of a loan are we talking about here? How big is it? Did you make any effort to pay them when a lot of time past without getting a bill or did you just ignore it? You probably have some leverage here, but shouldn't overplay your hand. Their error cost you, but they have facts on their... View More
I had a computer picked up for repair and have been calling the business for the past month and half with no response back from them, I need my computer back and don't know what to do. Should I contact a the police?

Talk to a local business or contracts lawyer. Small claims court may be an option.

There are people at my work that have been instructed to do this so that customers can be billed. The customer requires a signed work order and there is no signature. A signature will be taken off an old work order and pasted onto one that has no signature.
What will happen?

They might sue you to try to cover the repairs, but most likely they will just bloody up your credit.
I ran out of gas, luckily at a gas station, and my debit card wasn't working and I didn't have cash or anyone to call so I called AAA and they called a person to come. The people who where suppose to come called me and said that they weren't going to come because I was at a gas... View More
The car is an older car but it ran. We are worried that they are going to call it a total loss and just want to give cash for the price of the motor or less then what is owed on it.

If they replace the engine, you are in the position you would have been but for their negligent failure to properly put in the oil plug. So I don't see anything wrong with such a settlement.

The ex attempted to remove my wife from the homeowner insurance late in 2009 but... View More

This seems familiar. I think I answered this question a few days ago. Is this a law school assignment? As I said in my previous answer, this would require more research than any of us are going to do for free, but off the top of my head, the ex is most likely facing civil trouble from contempt and...

out of the loan?
I also electronically signed a contract. Am I bound by law to pay them $4500? They cannot supply a copy of their licenses to do business. I'm worried they are fraudulent after talking to my banker. I am in Ohio and they are in Florida.

Does the credit card company still own that debt?
answered on Jun 18, 2015
Probably not. The debt has likely been sold to a collections agent.

It was probably repossessed then. Call the tow truck company and find out why they towed it. If you owed money to someone for the truck, and you fell behind on payments, then they have the right to come and take the truck back. If you are current on all your payments, then find an attorney... View More

Probably not, without be liable to him for a breach of the warranty. Your proper recourse would be to hire an attorney to sue him for slander. The warranty and the slander probably have no connection whatsoever.
