To sue a cosigner, you should first review the loan agreement to understand the terms and obligations of the cosigner. Next, attempt to resolve the issue amicably through communication or mediation. If that fails, gather all relevant documentation, such as the loan agreement and any payment records, and consult with an attorney to assess the viability of your case. Finally, file a lawsuit in the appropriate court, ensuring you follow all legal procedures and deadlines.

What can a cosigner do when the car was involved in an accident and he was not the driver?

I've seen enough 'Judge Judy' episodes to almost recite her exactly... Anyone who cosigns for something - is equally liable for any costs. Although they were not responsible for the actual accident - the other party can sue each cosigner for the cost of repairing the damages.The cosigner who was not driving - would then have to sue the driver to recover their money.


What can a cosigner do after a car is repossessed Can they sue the primary signer?

Seems pointless to even consider. If the primary signer didn't have enough funds to make the car payments, they probably will not have enough funds to pay any lawsuit you charge them with. Fact is, if the primary signer defaulted on payments, then the cosigner would be responsible for making them - If repossession occured, then it was due to the fault of the cosigner .. can't sue yourself.


How do you the cosigner sue primary borrower?

The cosigner contacts an attorney who will process the paper work for him. Or, the cosigner can file the suit (foolishly) pro se (on your own). Or, the cosigner can file the suit in small claims court. What is important is that the cosigner can show significant and real damages before filing, or hope he is not filing in a state that will bring criminal charges for filing a frivolous law suit.
