How do you remove someone's name from a deed when they are uncooperative. my son and i are estranged. his name is on the deed. he doesnt live there, nor has he ever paid the mortgage. we havent spoken in years, i want to remove his name but he is unwilling to sign. how do i get his name removed? can it be done?
You'd have to retain an attorney and go to court to settle this matter. Better yet, resolve the issue between the two of you and move on.
if we were able to resolve the issue between the both of us, i wouldnt be writing on this forum. so what im trying to see if there is a way for it be taken care of in court. are there documents i can file on my own.
I really like your post. Will continue reading your blog. :)
i hope i can find some clarithelpful information to this situation....rather than people just say pay a lawyer xxx amount of dollars.... i know u have to pay but sometimes there are document that can be filed for maybe half the cost of going to court.. maybe someone knows something i dont....
I suggest you schedule a consultation with a local attorney; generally you'll find you can get a free consultation and that can lead you to answers that you aren't likely to get here.
As an example, I am not a lawyer, so cannot reasonably comment on what is or is not legal, or even available to you in your situation. I think you'll find that most of the answers you'll get on here are going to be from laypeople, who, lacking expertise in the law, may lead you astray.
I also surmise that you'll end up in a court of law eventually. That's not to say that you'll have to use an attorney there, either. Many people appear pro se in court.
Simply put, there are no easy answers.
