Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California

Living Trust
We used a paralegal to do a living trust. The house was not funded into the trust. She was in bad shape and I was in a VA nursing home. My ex wife passed away 2 years ago. My youngest son has been paying the mortgage for 2 years, before trying to get a non qualifying assumption. I am the trustee. The trust left 1/3rd ownership to my 3 boys. The county honored the trust and there is a grant deed showing each as 1/3 owners. My oldest son has some unpaid medical bills. They are going to sue him. Chase the mortgage co. has the loan in the estate of my departed ex wife. Can they put a lien on the house if something goes wrong and my oldest does not thae care of those bills? I have asked my oldest son to fill out a quitclaim deed to put his 1/3 ownership to my youngest son, who live in the house with me. Chase will fund the living trust. They have sent me the paperwork. Before I send them the paperwork, I want the house protected from a lien. My oldest son and middle son live else ware. I am a quadriplegia and do not want to own any part of the house.

Re: Living Trust

YOur question is too confusing on the facts to answer in this forum. You should hire a lawyer to help you sort all this through.
