i purchased an online form from online lawyer, but i don't know how to fill it out; they also do not answer my emails. i know of only one lawyer in corpus christi texas that is familiar w/form and he charges $800. i heard these were not that expensive. where can i find another lawyer in texas. i bought the lady bird deed. maybe i should have purchased a transfer on death deed. i'm not sure if they are the same. thanks, mel
Welcome Mel.
There is a Texas attorney who participates in this community forums. He is Joshua Heard (jheard) from Houstan. You can pm him or leave a quick message for him.
I'm sending a pm to jheard. In case he receives it, he'll be then able to respond to your query just in case he doesn't notice your post.
Thanks.

Wow that seems like a lot of money to have a form done. Good to shop around. goodluck, hope you find some other options. :D
My mother passed away month ago. The TX title was only under her name. My father is living in house, however, I would like to know what I need to do in order to tranfer title to him. Also could the title be under both our names and if so... would property taxes go up. Right now they are very low due to their senior discount. Her will only mentions me as getting the house however I know TX law says it goes to my father. That is fine however what happens if we want to sell later, what would be the easiest way to hold title without any problems in case something happens to either of us. Thank you
Hi julez!
Welcome to forums!
If your mother has not left any will, then your father needs to file an affidavit of heirship at the county recorder's office and get the property transferred in your name. If you want to be one of the owners of the property, then you will also have to file the affidavit of heirship along with your father. If you both become the owners of the property, then both of you will have to sign the deed in case of property sale.
Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
