A home quick claim deed (HQCD) is a particular kind of document that allows you to transfer the title of your home when you move. You might have heard it referred to as a "quitclaim deed," but that's just one type of HQCD. The quickest of the quick, an HQCD can be prepared, signed, and recorded in only a few hours.

There are many reasons why someone might want to use an HQCD instead of a traditional deed, but they all boil down to convenience and speed. If you're selling your house, or if you're buying a house and the title hasn't been cleared by the seller yet, an HQCD makes it possible to get everything done quickly and easily while avoiding the usual hassles. If you're buying from someone who is moving out-of-state or country and will be unavailable for weeks or months until everything is transferred over, you can use an HQCD to take on the responsibility for their property without having to wait for them to come back around.

A home quick claim deed is a legal document that can be used to transfer ownership of a home from one person to another. It is often called a "quick claim deed" because it is easier and faster than the more traditional method of transferring real estate, which involves having a title search performed by an attorney or notary prior to transferring ownership.

Personal Liability of an LLC

Can the Owner of a Limited Liability Company Be Penalized? As a business owner, you must understand the potential risks and liabilities you may face. If you own a limited liability company (LLC), you may be wondering whether you can be personally penalized for the actions of your business. Here's what you need to know about the potential for personal penalties as an LLC owner. The Benefits of an LLC An LLC is a business structure combining elements of a corporation and a partnership. One of the main benefits of an LLC is that it offers personal liability protection for its owners, known as members. This means that, in most cases, the member's personal assets are protected from any legal action taken against the LLC. However, it's important to understand that this liability protection is not absolute. There are certain situations in which an LLC owner may be personally liable for the actions of the business. Personal Liability for LLC Owners There are several circumstances i...

Does an executor of the estate have an expiration?

Does an executor of the estate have an expiration? Madison Assistant at  Parklin Law An executor does not have an expiration date. An executor has a job to do and he or she is the only person who can do it. The executor is in charge of settling the estate and making sure all debts are paid; paying any taxes on the estate and distributing the remainder according to your will. The executor may need help to carry out this work, but he or she is still in charge of everything. Just like the laws of inheritance can be complex and confusing, they also have plenty of exceptions. One interesting exception is that an executor or administrator's role doesn't expire after a certain period of time. Although there are no set rules on how long you need to be the executor of someone's estate, you don't have to worry about it expiring. If you're named as an executor, your job is to handle the estate until it's closed, which means paying debts, distributing assets, and filling ou...

Can my attorney be the executor of my will?

Can my attorney be the executor of my will? Madison Assistant at  Parklin Law Many people ask whether the attorney who helps them create their will can also be the executor of that will. The quick answer is yes. However, there are some things to consider. In a perfect world, your attorney would be both your estate planning advocate and your executor. But in the real world, it's often hard to find an attorney who is willing and able to take on both roles. Not all attorneys are equipped with the skill set required to handle the many aspects of an estate plan. If you need help with complicated tax planning or asset protection strategies, then you'll want an attorney with expertise in those areas. You may also need help from a specialist estate planning attorney if your assets are large enough that you're subject to complex transfer tax laws. Finally, if you have a complicated family situation like a second marriage or blended family, it may be necessary to bring in legal couns...
