Is a deed change necessary?

Rudolf Jon Karvay
Answered by attorney Rudolf Jon Karvay (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Berkman, Henoch, Peterson Peddy, P.C.
More information regarding how title to the property is held is needed in order to accurately answer your question. For example, if title was held "as husband and wife", which is called a tenancy by the entirety, then a deed may not be necessary because title passed to you automatically upon your wife's death. On the other hand, if title was held as tenants-in-common, then a deed may be necessary to transfer her interest to you.

You should consult with an attorney knowledgeable about estate matters. You may not be allowed to sit in on the closing as an observer but even if you were you would not learn very much!

Would judges follow a signed will over one that was not?

James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Answered by attorney James Bloomfield Oberholtzer
Estate Planning lawyer at James Oberholtzer, Chartered
Usually, only the signed Will would be valid and paid attention to. However, if there was fraud or some other special circumstances then other documents like the unsigned Will could become important.
