What do I need to do to give property over to someone else?

Jeremiah D Raxter
Answered by attorney Jeremiah D Raxter (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Raxter Law
Depending on how recently you inherited the property, or if you haven't accepted the gift you can disclaim your interest. Without more facts it is impossible to give you a clear answer. Good luck in your search for an attorney.

How should I set up the money from my childs settlement?

Answered by attorney Eugene Ray Critchett (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at E. Ray Critchett, LLC
Generally, minor settlements in Ohio have to be approved by the Probate Court. Many Courts will require any significant money be placed into either a structured settlement and/or a custodial account fro your child. This will protect the money for him/her. A custodial account may also allow access to some of the funds for certain Court approved purchases, such as necessary school supplies.

May I deed property under mortgage to my sons while retaining responsibility for paying same?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark Schaefer (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Elder Law Office of Mark Schaefer PC
Leaving aside the practical question of whether this is a smart thing to do, the legal answer is that it depends on what your Security Deed or Deed to Secure Debt says. In most standard documents, any transfer of ownership interest is an event of default that would allow your Lender, usually at their option, to declare the full amount due and to foreclose if you don't pay. So, read your security instrument, and to be extra safe, get written permission from your lender to do this before you do it. However, even before that, you may want to discuss the wisdom of such a move with an estate planning attorney. There may be better options.
