What to do if I paid $8500 cash for a vehicle from a dealership and paid the tax, title and license as well but never received the title?
The guy keeps lying to me about it. I filed a complaint with the DMV 60 days after purchase. The DMV investigator contacted me and said the dealer never owned the car he sold me. He also informed me that the car had been damaged in an accident. The DMV will get my title from the 3rd party lender, but I will have to pay Tax title and license again to register and get my plates. Can I sue the dealership owner?

From what you have written about you have a valid basis factually and legally for bringing a legal action against the dealership from whom you purchased your vehicle from. As such, I suggest that you consult with an attorney that practices in the area of consumer law to assist you in your matter.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The Answer(s) provided above are for general information only. The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved. Unlike the information in the Answer(s) above, upon which you should NOT rely, for personal advice you can rely upon we suggest you retain an attorney to represent you.
