Can you get a bonded Title in Pennsylvania?
I get the question regularly, can you get a bonded car title in Pennsylvania? The answer is no, that process is not available in Pennsylvania. Some states offer bonded titles as options to cars that do not have a title or for which the title has been lost. This is not the case in Pennsylvania.
It can be argued however that Pennsylvania has a better solution. If you buy a car without a title in Pennsylvania you must go through the Court of Common Pleas and seeking a decree that you are the owner of the car. Attorney Bryan W. Shook of Shook Legal, Ltd. can assist you.
When you hire Bryan W. Shook, he takes case and does the work for you. He thoroughly researches the vehicle’s history and puts everything together for the Court’s consideration. Through the process, the Constitutionally required due process is respected and the end result is hopefully a judgment or decree declaring that you are the lawful owner of the vehicle to the exclusion of all others and extinguishing any liens or claims, if any.
After you get the Court Order, you take that to Penndot for processing as an involuntary vehicle transfer and should end up with a clean Pennsylvania Certificate of Title.
