Can a lien be put on a probated estate?

Bankruptcy and Debt 1 views 3 answers
The property has been through title changes and no longer belongs to the deceased person who owed the back child support. The liens were temporally lifted for the sale of 1 property, then the wife died and all property was left to her 3 children. The estate went to probate and the titles changed. can the lien be reinstated even though the deceased name is no longer on the title?

You will need to talk to a real estate attorney in your area. In order to answer the question, she'll need to look at all of the documents to understand the precise timing of the various filings and transfers.

You will need to check to be sure that the liability for which the liens arose was properly handled in the probate. If notice was given and the court approved the probate proceedings, the property should be clear of the potential liens. Check with the lawyer who took care of the probate. If there was no lawyer, hire one who works in this area of the law.

The answer to that is complicated and like the other contributer suggested you should contact a real estate lawyer/estate/probate lawyer for specific advise www.tzmlaw.com
