Not neccesarily. Depending on the situation you could use a quick claim deed. * Legal counsel is usually not required. Quit claims have restrictions depending upon the laws of the state where the property is located. There are several factors that must be considered when transferring real property. For instance, the laws of the state of residency, the status of the property (owned outright, liens in place, under mortgage contract, bankruptcy or creditor action, etc), and to whom the property is being transferred.

If you give your property to someone else do you lose ownership rights?

Yes. In law, to give is to transfer property to another voluntarily and without compensation. In the case of real property you would need to sign a deed to make the transfer. In the case of property such as a motor vehicle, you would need to sign over the Certificate of Title.


How do you get access to your will?

Your will is your personal property during your lifetime. If your will is kept by your lawyer, contact your lawyer's office. If someone else has your will, require that person to return your will to you forthwith. If such a person refuses to return your will to you, consult a lawyer. It would probably be cheaper and faster to have a new will prepared than to engage in expensive litigation over your existing one. In most cases, a new will states that all former wills are revoked.

What kind of lawyer do you get if your family member was murdered?

You don't need to hire a lawyer because the person who murdered your family member will be put on trial by the DA and the state. If you need to prove that someone did the murder I would find a private detective and do the leg work to turn over to the DA. Your best bet is probably a retired police detective who knows what to do.

If someone hasn't picked up their property for over 17 years is it considered abandoned?

When you say "picked up", do you mean "cleaned" or "retrieved"? If someone has an empty city lot (real property) that hasn't been "picked up" for many years, the municipality might take steps to remove the hazards and eyesore, placing a lien on the property to cover the expenses and then take the property to satisfy the lien. As for "retrieval": If someone has left personal property in possession of someone else, with no particular agreement as to when it would be reclaimed, there is a presumption that it has been abandoned after a "reasonable" time. However, the "reasonable" time could be very long or very short, depending upon the circumstances. You would have the burden of proving the property was intentionally abandoned, rather than merely forgotten. There are also long-term "loans" of property to others that were never expected to be converted into ownership! If the goods are valuable, then you should speak with a lawyer experienced in property law.
