The simplest thing to do is file a copy of the marriage certificate with the deed. Or you can do a quit claim deed with the new name.

When a person dies does your name go on the deed if you inherit the property?

It is not necessary to change the name in the land records. Probate court records are public records and the probated estate passes title to the heirs. However, if you want to transfer the property to the heirs by a deed the attorney who handled the estate can draft the proper deed for you.


What if you were married to the deceased and he got land during the marriage but only his name in on the deed and you r still married when he dies?

That would depend on where you live. In states that recognise community property it does not matter if your name is on the deed, if you purchase the property during the marriage it is community property and both own it equally. In states that do not recognise community property, if his name is the only one on the deed, then it belongs only to him.


Are quit claim deeds as simple to do as they used to be 20 years ago?

Quitclaim deeds haven't changed. However, since a quitclaim deed transfers ownership of real property forever, and the consequences of property ownership have changed, a deed should always be drafted under the supervision of an attorney. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly and difficult to correct if they can be corrected.Quitclaim deeds haven't changed.

Can a wife execute a quitclaim deed without her husband's signature if her name is the only name on the deed?

This is fraud, the deed is not valid and the wife has committed a crime. The husband should notify the holder of the deed (in writing) that the signature on the deed is not his and that the deed is not valid. Signing another person's name when you do not have the legal capacity to do so is forgery.

If one of the married partners acquires real estate by deed does that give the other spouse legal rights to that property?

It depends on the state that the property is in. In a separate property state the spouse would not acquire an interest. In a community property state if the property is acquired by deed during the marriage it becomes community property.
