What are my rights as the biological child if my father put everything he owed into his adopted kid's name?

Answered by attorney Kathleen Delacy (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Reger Rizzo & Darnall, LLP
If your father transferred ownership into someone else's name, you really have no right to the property. No one has a right to inherit anything, it is totally up to the decedent who they want to leave their estate.

How can I transfer the title of a property into my name?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles Richard Perry (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Charles R. Perry
Everything depends on how title to the property is now held. If the person whose name is on the title is still alive, that person can sign a deed to transfer the property to you. If the property should have been transferred to you after the death of the person on title, then you will need to open a probate and obtain a court order for the propertys transfer. If neither of those work, you may need to do an action for quiet title and/or adverse possession against whoever has title to the property. You will likely need an attorney to help you with this.
