Real Estate – Loss of Property & Conversion

A collection service, under the direction of a large American bank, broke into our clients home under the assumption that our client had defaulted on his mortgage payments. The service ransacked the home, opened drawers, flipped over beds and riffled through the pantry. One month later, the same collection service wrongfully seized all property of value within the home. They also disconnected the fire and home alarm systems and changed the locks. Unfortunately, the collection service failed to properly secure the home and left at least two doors unlocked. Soon thereafter our clients home burned to the ground. Because of the disconnected fire alarm the home was lost in the fire. After investigating the cause of the fire the police found arson to be the cause. The collection service was implicated as the potential arsonist, though no criminal charges were brought. Our client brought suit against the bank and collection service for loss of property, conversion, and negligent infliction of emotional distress.
