Wheel clamps removed from my (3rd party) car, how do I claim damages and losses?


Make a claim

If bailiffs clamp your car to enforce a debt owned by another, then that is in breach of regulations.[1]

The owner of the goods may recover damages by making a claim.[2][3]

[2] Section 3 of the Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977
