a dealer forged my signature on DMV papers, met with VP he acknolweged it and I'm waiting for the owner to contact me. What are my options
No-they probably forged your signature
If someone signs someone elses name on the title that means the title is forged. For example if i sign your name one the title that means its forged. So i advise if someone forges a name on the title call DMV and ask how to apply for a Duplicate Title, the Duplicate title will state that your the original owner of the Vehicle and since the original title has a forged signature on it means its NULL AND VOID, so its good for the garbage So go and get the Duplicate title, that's proof of ownership
Gather all proofs of purchase including copies of title & registration.
You should contact the police immediately and file a report.
The title is legal. The forgery is not.
According to the state statues, the penalty would be determined by how the state interprets the offense. Most states view a forged signature on any legal document as fraud. In most states it would constitute a Class A fraudulent offense. The penalty would likely be a fine and a record filing of fraud on the offenders police record.
Someone needs to gift it to you.
File a forgery complaint with the police. reapply for a title , then get a lawyer to have the lien removed.
Answer: I take it you are talking about a trade in. You or the dealer will have to apply for a lost title.. simple.
You probably signed something saying that you would get the title to the lender so I believe that they can accelerate the loan. It shouldn't be hard for you to get a duplicate title if the title is lost.
"ITS", or "Its" is part of a document's signature block and follows the company name and person's signature. Eg: ABC Company, By: [signature], Its: [Title of person].
Not necessarily.
