Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

Hi, general question. My husband signed his sons name on a title of a camarro and let it go to the junk yard after we held it at our house for almost two years while son was in College in GA. Son said he was going to come and get the car but never did so he told my husband he could let the junk yard take it but now he is saying he didn't say that. Son was driving our Explorer for last three years in college of which we paid $386/month and $120 a month on insurance. So over three years that is way more the value of a 1988 camaroo that was running and was left at our house for two years even when we asked him to come and get it and gave him ample time to come and get it. Exploere just got reposseed a week ago due to hard times for me and my husband. Son wants to sue. Son is now in Missourri, is it true he would have to sue us here in FL where the car got picked up? How would a judge look at this?

He would need to sue you in Florida. You sold his property, so without his permission, you are liable for conversion.
