First you need counsel who can give advice after a very detailed and comprehensive examination of the facts, documentation, and records.Far more detailed then I can give you here.

WARNING: This response is not intended to be legal advice, or an acceptance of representation. It is merely a response to a generalized inquiry.

I think these facts are very confusing, and facts matter. Your exact legal status will depend upon various legal/factual considerations. What type of agreement did you have when you gave him the $$$$. Was there a signed instrument giving you ownership and control of the mobile home. Is there and was there a lien. He could be speaking of a landlord's lien, or is he speaking of an individualized instrument. What were mobile home owners rights as to the trailer. Can you prove your end of the story.

AGAIN: This is not intended to be nor should it be construed to be legal advice, it is merely a response to a generalized legal question. If you want my help you can contact me at 281 704 6740, [email protected].

These things can blow up into a big problem.
