6 years ago my mother in law (now ex) quit claim deeded a house over to me, i have since sold it and moved on. we have always been friends, at one point she liked me better than her son. out of the blue, she has filed a lawsuit stating that i forged her signature on the quit claim deed and is suing me and the man that bought the house. can she do that? the deed was notarized, witnessed, etc.
any one can sue for any reason and bring it to court. Does she have a valid case? Needs to be looked at by an attorney before you go to court. If there was NO forgery, you have nothing to worry about. Hopefully you can get a decent attorney to calm her down if not, when you win, she has to pay your legal expenses.
No forgery, my ex-husband is behind this. She has already admitted to one of her friends that she signed it but "didn't know what she was signing." I only stopped having contact with her a year ago becuase he gave her such a hard time. She is an old woman, 88. It's a shame.
