There is no universal answer. It depends on many factors that include the scope of the lawsuit, the professional abilities of the entity that has been retained to address the problem, the amount of corrective work needed to correct the problem, the court docket in the court of jurisdiction, etc.

Does your spouse get half of your inheritance if yall get divorced?

It depends on the law of your state. In Texas, all property is presumed to be community property, unless you can show by clear and convincing evidence that it is separate. An inheritance is separate property. A spouse cannot be divested of separate property in a divorce. (It can be tapped to pay child support, however.)


If my brother goes into a nursing home and his property is deeded to me what reasons would a nursing home have to have to take the property from me?

His property is seen as an asset and with many nursing homes an agreement is signed giving all asserts to the home. Veteran homes and many Masonic, church homes do this. I would contact a lawyer with this question.


Can a spouse Quit Claim ownership to their unencumbered home while they are still married?

Not if the home is jointly titled and the other spouse/owner is not agreeable to the transfer/sale. Likewise, if the couple live in a community property state and the home was acquired during the marriage, then both of them have equal rights to the property even if only one person is named on the deed/title. Quit Claims are not the desirable method for transferring/selling of property as they can be easily disputed and they do not guarantee clear title to the person who is acquiring the real estate.


How do you receive land given to you in a will?

You receive title through the will. There is no conveyance, as title vests in the receiving heir(s) immediately upon decedent's death, subject to legal contingencies or conditions that may require disposal of the property to someone else during probate. Once the estate is settled, the contingent title becomes clear title. The lawyer handing the Estate (Will) should contact you. It can take up to a year or more for a Will to go through Probate (meaning: all challenges are defended, creditors are paid, all personal income tax is paid and all property taxes are paid off, and all priority gifts have been made.) If in doubt, try finding out who the lawyer is and contact him/her.


Can a life estate be revoked if they can no longer live in the house and moves to a different state everything is paid for and up to date?

A life estate is a right to the use of real property for the duration of a person's natural life. It cannot be revoked unless the power to revoke for non-use was reserved in the document that created the life estate. Otherwise, you need to have the life estate holder sign a deed releasing their life estate in the property in order to clear the title.

Can you sell property if you bought the same property off some one who has a civil suit against him?

As long as there is no lien on the property you can. If the civil suit is pending, then no judgment lien has attached to the property and you can buy it free and clear. If the civil suit relates directly to the property, the plaintiff may have put a lis pendens on it which is a type of pre-judgment lien that is permitted in some cases when the lawsuit is over the property itself. In addition, if the suit is for work done on the house by a contractor, there may be a mechanics' lien on the property. This is another pre-judgment lien that is permitted. In any event, if the civil suit is merely an action on a debt or a tort, the mere pendency of a civil suit does not create a lien on the property. Absent a lis pendens or mechanic's lien, the property may be purchased from the defendant and sold.
