How do i correct misspelled names on a recorded Quick Claim Deed
Anonymous1 views3 answers
My mother had some property in Indiana. She had a Quick Claim Deed drawn up leaving the property to her children, On the Quick Deed some of the children have been remarried and names were misspelled. This Quick Deed was recorded. How do i correct this. Can i type amendment and have it notarized to correct the misspelled names.
I suggest you contact the county recorder's office in the county where the property is located. If they do not help you, then contact an Indiana licensed attorney.
As my colleagues have suggested, you would probably be best to contact the county recorder's office for the county in which the property sits, since each county and state will do things differently. Here in Nevada, you would merely record the amended Quitclaim Deed. But every state's laws are a little different. If the recorder's office can't or won't help you, find an attorney (probably right there in the county seat) that can help you. (You might also try a local title company - they often can answer basic procedural questions.)
