Law Enforcement Seizures

“Recovering vehicles from the NYPD is not difficult for us because we know the process inside and out. We constantly work to improve that process so that our clients recover vehicles even faster.” Wendy Meola

In 2021, we recovered over 320 vehicles in New York City, Nassau and Suffolk and other counties in New York state. Because the New York City Police Department (NYPD) and other law enforcement agencies seize thousands of vehicles annually, it is vital that automotive finance companies have a streamlined process for recovering these vehicles.
