Homeownership/Real Property | I am interested in this case >

Client was record owner of her home along with her mother. They shared the property as joint tenants with a right of survivorship.  Client's mother died.  Due to hard financial times, Client was forced to declare bankruptcy.  During this bankruptcy period, the property was improperly sold at a Sheriff's Sale.  Client brought a successful lawsuit to restore title in her name; however, the deed returning title granted the property to the client and estate of her deceased mother. Client would like assistance in correcting title to her property to show her as the sole record owner.

Client, currently living on Social Security Disability, lives in the home of her deceased mother. Client’s mother died intestate in 1981. Client had one brother who also died intestate in 1993. The brother is survived by his wife and two children. The brother’s wife has been uncooperative but unlikely to contest client taking title to the home. Client will need assistance with obtaining title to her home through a §3546 petition in order to enter into a payment plan for delinquent real estate taxes.

Client resides in the home of her deceased mother. Client’s mother owned several properties before she died intestate.  Mother is survived by her husband, Client, and Client’s five other siblings. Client would not like to probate her mother’s entire estate because she does not want to be responsible for the other properties. We believe client can gain title to this property through a §3546 petition. Client’s father and siblings are willing to assist in the §3546 petition to determine title in Client’s name. Client would like assistance with the §3546 petition so she can gain title to enter into a payment plan for delinquent real estate taxes.

Client, a 33-year-old mother of two, is living in the property owned by her grandmother.  Client's grandmother passed away in 2001, with a will naming client's mother as the Executrix and leaving the property to client and client's two siblings.  Client has been living in the property since that time and maintaining it, including making monthly payments on the back real estate taxes and back water bill.  Clients two siblings are willing to give their interests in the property to her and have signed statements to that effect.  The will also left two other properties in Louisiana to client's mother, uncle, and brother, but the condition of these properties is unknown and no one is interested in obtaining title to them.  As a result, client needs assistance in filing a §3546 Petition for Determination of Title in Orphan's Court, so that she can obtain title to the property and enter into a more affordable payment plan for the back taxes.
