i recently had two abandoned vehicles that sit in my driveway towed. one vehicle was sitting for 8 months without permisson. one morning my husband and i woke up and seen a teenaged relatives vehicle parked broke down in our driveway. i recently informed them that the car would be towed, giving a deadline. now after having it towed the parents want to press charges against me.
Answer
For what? And if the "parent" are pressing charges, this seems like a criminal issue, not civil. If criminal charges are brought, then you will need a criminal defense attorney.
I do not know who you informed them or how. If they are minors, you would have had to give notice to the child's parents.
For now, I would wait to see if you are charged criminally or sued civilly and then get a local lawyer as appropriate. The parents of the teen may just be bluffing. At most, I would send the parents a certified letter, outlining when the car was left at your property, what steps you took to have the owners remove it (provide a copy of any letter or recite the details of when, where and how notice was given) and give them the name of the towing place that got the vehicle.
