Does unofficial quit claim can protect my wife right from my daughters?
Can they claim the house? Should I go to title company?

By unofficial quit claim do you mean doing it without the help of an attorney?
You are right Barry. An unofficial quit claim means doing it in the absence of a notary public or a title company. But I don't think such a deed is valid. So how can it protect your wife if you transfer the property to her through quit claim. Anyone can claim it until and unless it is legally executed.
hi guest,
if you transfer your share of interest in the property to your wife with a quit claim deed, the transfer will be valid only if the deed is signed by notary public and then recorded at the county recorder's office. such a deed is valid as it can be found among the public records and anyone can check it. also, it is better to have the deed drafted by an attorney as he is aware of the legal terms and can thus include all required information in the deed.
even if anyone claims the house, none other than your wife will have the ownership rights, so there's no need to worry. and, if you can ask your attorney to get the deed recorded at the county recorder's office, then there is no need to conatct a title company.
thanks

If your wife is the owner through quit claim, no one can claim the house
Hi dear,
A title company conducts a title search by checking the public records in order to ensure that the title is clear and free of any lien. The company then provides title insurance policies.
In your situation, you need not approach the title company. All you need is getting the signature of the notary public on the deed and then filing it at the County Recorder's office so that it is recorded.
Thanks,
