How do I write it on the quit claim deed?

Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
You cannot do this. It is completely possible that a quit claim deed will not work at all, for this asset. Cemetery plots are considered to be personal property and not real property. You need to contact the cemetery before doing anything else, and find out from them what form of document they will accept. They may even have a form for you to use. As for restrictions on the transfer, you may or may not be able to do that. Again, the cemetery is the first place to check. What you are trying to do is make a conditional transfer. They may or may not allow that.

How can we get the property/home transferred to the correct owners so that they can get benefits of owning it?

Estate Planning lawyer at Law Office of Victor Waid
Obtain the services of a probate trust litigation lawyer to assist you in unraveling this mess. I suspect the lawyer will want a retainer and an hourly fee contract.

If I missed the hearing to remove me as Personal Representative, what can I do?

Answered by attorney Kenneth A Prigmore (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Prigmore Law
You can always file another motion to make another change. If you can show the Judge that 1) you had a good reason for missing the hearing, and 2) you have been acting appropriately as the PR, you may be allowed to remain PR. Please note, it is unusual for the PR to live in the home for an extended period of time. Unless the testamentary documents directly gave you this right, then you would normally be expected to use the property solely for the benefit of the beneficiaries of the estate. Personal Representatives will sometimes allow someone to live in the home of the deceased, but will normally charge rent or reduce the inheritance of the beneficiary, unless all beneficiaries agree to allow someone to stay in the home rent free. Personal Representatives have a duty to see that the estate property is not wasted and is liquidated and distributed according to the testamentary intent of the decedent in a prompt manner.
