Legal Question in Family Law in New York

My ex bought me out of our home in 2008. He was suppose to refi under his nam alone to remove me from the debt owed on the house. He never did and now the house is in foeclosure. He is telling me the bank will do a loan modification only if I sign a quick claim deed. I have been told that the quick claim deed will not reomve me from the debt. In our agreement it sates that I will sign any papers need to tranfer the house to him. I am not sure if I should sign this form? I have been told that the bank will not remove my name from the acct even if i sign this so, why would they want me to sign one?

Get a lawyer-this is a lot of money and lliability. I just got a case yesterday where MY client needed the ex-fiance off the deed and mtg, and sign the loan mod papers and will not.

I handle cases on LI. See carolryderlaw.com (lots of info) or e-mail carol.ryder @ymail.com
