Legal Question in Family Law in California

Re: Quitclaim Deed

Dear Inquirer:

Nothing herein shall create an attorney-client relationship, unless a written retainer agreement is executed by the attorney and client. This communication contains general information only. Nothing herein shall constitute an attorney-client communication nor legal advice. There likely are deadlines and time-limits associated with your case; you should contact an attorney of your choice for legal advice specific to your personal situation, at once.

If you haven't already done so, please visit my

web site at --

http://home.pacbell.net/edbjr/ OR

http://www.CaliforniaDivorceAttorney.com

The site contains quite a bit of general information about California Family Law, Tenants' Rights, and Juvenile Dependencies, and EDD hearings and appeals, as well as information about me (education, experience, et cetera) and my office (location, hours, fees, policies).

NOW, IN RESPONSE TO YOUR INQUIRY --

The facts that you have provided are not clear

enough and/or complete enough to provide a

definitive answer to you inquiry; however, I would

say: If this is a transfer to one of the parties incident to the dissolution of their marriage, you probably should be using an interspousal transfer deed. One may use any name one wishes to use as long as there is no fraudulent intent or action. I would suggest that she sign first with the name as it is on the deed, then with her present name.

Thanks for sharing your interesting inquiry with

us on LawGuru, and good luck with your case.
