A couple years ago I was towed illegally. I didn't know the laws but with a little leg work I learned that the tow company had violated several California Vehicle Codes and that I could sue in small claims and ask for up to 4x what I was charged by the B_______S!
Well I sued and was awarded a judgment for 2x what I was charged plus the cost of the small claims filing and service.
Soon there will be a self help website up and running, or so I hear, which explains what our rights are as consumers against the evil towing companies. Posted on 2/28/2011.
