Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York

As with any legal matter a complete picture of the relevant facts would be needed, and would likewise be the basis for a determination such as this.

However, findings of fraudulent conveyances would usually be predicated on a showing of INTENT to defraud creditors. Based on your facts, for the conveyance to be considered fraudulent, it would likely have to be shown that your wife knew your son defaulted on the loan (which she co-signed for) and that she thereafter deeded herself off the property in order to put it out of reach of the creditor. Among other factors, these facts would tend to prove the required intent. Thus if it does not appear from the timeline and facts that she intended to defraud, the finding would be unlikely.
