[CLBS] The little things your clients think about later.

[Catherine Dullea]

Listmates:
New potential chapter 7 clients, after a thorough telephone interview
yesterday, call me today to say there could be a problem because they deeded
their home to their daughter by quitclaim deed that was recorded earlier
this week (didn't tell me that yesterday when I asked if they own any real
property).  I say we need to undo it since they still live there.  So I get
a copy of the quitclaim (which client wife says must be good since they got
the form from the recorder), and it has no legal description, and the notary
paragraph fails to include the state, county, date or identity of the
signatories.  I don't want to have to worry about a trustee making a claim
for the property, but the deed is obviously "wild".  Any suggestions?
