my exhusband signed a quitclaim deed but has now decided to take me to court for his share of any equity the house holds. is this possible since he signed the quitclaim deed?
Hi Robin,
If you have your name on the ownership deed that means the property is yours. But if you are willing to give back the property, you can sign a reverse quit claim and do it.

Hi Robin,
If your ex-husband signed the quitclaim deed and it is recorded in the County Recorder then your husband can't do this. But, there are certain situations also where your ex-husband can ask his interest of property from you. If he proves in the court that he has signed the deed under threat or pressure, then he may get back the property. So, be alert and talk to an attorney to help you out from this situation.

Hi, if your ex-husband has signed a quitclaim deed and this quitclaim deed has been recorderd, so ,your ex-husband won't take you to court for his share of any equity the house holds. through a recorded quitclaim deed, you have your name on the ownership deed and you own the whole title on the real property.
