Re: quit claim

Sometimes attorneys will file quitclaims on behalf of their clients, but sometimes the clients have the responsibility of filing the quitclaims because the attorney wants the client to pay the filing fees directly to the clerk.

I would think that, if the attorney still has the original quitclaim deed, it is her responsibility to file it. Obviously, you can't file it if you don't have it.

Perhaps the attorney isn't doing any further work for you because you are behind on your bill. You should call her office and ask her office manager of this is the case.
