Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas
Mortgage question
Is there no help for people that signed a quick claim for your home during a breakup with a mortgage in the balance when one of the persons was suppose to re-finance the property in there name alone, and get the 2nd name off the mortgage. Is there no law, no alternative, no anything to help a person in this situation all the lawyers we have talked to have told us no. I just don�t see the justice if someone waves there rights to a home how the mortgage company can come back and make that person responsible for the payment when the one that is living in the home can�t pay their bills and doesn�t re-finance and make the home go into foreclosure. How the person that signs the quick claim is in the end responsible when they had no rights to the home and how this is ok in America that the law doesn�t protect people from this it just doesn�t seem right or fare? Does anyone know if there glimpse of hope?

Re: Mortgage question
It's really pretty simple. You didn't give the mortage co. a copy of the quit claim deed and they were not a party to your divorce and had no notice of what you did. So you see, you were trying to circumvent the law of the U.S. for your convenience. Usually doesn't work. Better find a lawyer. That deed will never hold up against the mortgage co. Good Luck.
