About this video

An RSLA lien can create unexpected costs and complications for PPSA lienholders. This video highlights three reasons to review and potentially challenge a lien: disputed repair and storage charges, questions about notice and licensing compliance, and risks to your interest in the asset.

Precision Paralegal Services assists PPSA lienholders with Ontario Repair and Storage Liens Act disputes, including section 24 applications.

So, if you’re a PPSA lienholder, an RSLA lien could cost you more than you think. And here are three reasons to challenge them. Firstly, there could be inflated storage and repair fees. Some companies pad charges far beyond what’s reasonable. Second, fail to follow the rules. Under the RSLA and TSSEA, towing and storage companies must provide proper notices and comply with licensing. And third, your priority as a lienholder is at risk. Without action, you could lose control of your asset. And at Precision Paralegal Services, we use section 24 applications to fight inflated charges and protect PPSA lienholders. Want to safeguard your assets?

This video provides general information, not legal advice. Available remedies depend on the circumstances.
