Quitclaim Deeds
Attorney-reviewed quitclaim deed preparation for Michigan and Florida property transfers.
Counsel for a proposed ownership transfer.
A quitclaim deed conveys the interest held by the grantor in the property. Accurate identification of the parties, the legal description, and the intended ownership arrangement are important to the preparation of the document.
The firm reviews the proposed transfer and available ownership information, including any disclosed mortgage, title, or authority concerns. The online request provides the starting information for that review; the appropriate document and terms are confirmed through the engagement process.
Information to have available
- Property address, county, and parcel or tax identification number
- Current recorded deed, recording reference, or legal description
- Full legal names, mailing addresses, and marital status of the parties
- Purpose of the transfer, consideration, and intended ownership interests
- Known mortgages, liens, trusts, or other ownership concerns
Questions about the process
What happens after I submit a request?
The information is saved for attorney review. Submission does not establish an engagement, prepare a deed, or transfer ownership. The firm must review the matter and confirm the engagement before legal work begins.
Can I begin without a copy of the current deed?
Yes. Indicate that you need assistance obtaining or confirming the ownership records. The firm will confirm any additional scope and cost. The required ownership information and legal description must be resolved before preparation.
What if a mortgage, trust, or ownership issue is involved?
Include the available details in the intake. The firm will review the information and identify any title, signing-authority, or other concerns that need to be addressed before proceeding.
How are the fee and recording services determined?
The firm confirms the preparation fee and whether recording assistance is included in the accepted engagement. Each required client must accept the engagement terms, and the required payment must be received and verified before drafting. Deed preparation does not include a title search, title opinion, or title insurance.
