SL/R231: Legal advice for 2013 SL550 purchase.
I am going to buy a car from out of state.
How do I protect myself legally?
Legal documents? Legal advice?
Thank you
Apart from checking the condition of the car be sure to check that the person selling to you is the person entitled to sell it to you, in other words that he is the owner. You also need to check that the person selling to you doesn't have an outstanding loan on it. Your Bank should be able to check this for you. My advice, as a lawyer, is get the ðeal done through the services of a lawyer so that if a problem does arise you will be able to prove that you bought the cr on the open market and had gone to the trouble of getting a lawyer to have matters checked out and under these circumstances you should then acquire a good title to the car.
