Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser reached a $1 million settlement with Wyatts Towing on December 22, 2023 after an investigation found the company had towed thousands of vehicles since 2019 without valid permits or proper authorization, charged unlawful fees, and illegally kept consumer funds, according to the Colorado AG's office. The settlement requires the company to change its business practices and return illegally collected fees to consumers.
Operator takeaway
A $1 million settlement for towing without valid permits — verify your permits, authorizations, and fee schedules are current and compliant before an AG investigation makes the audit mandatory.
