Homeowner May Be Victim Of Fraudulent Title Transfer & Wants To Know What To Do

In Washington, D.C., syndicated columnist and attorney Benny L. Kass recently addessed the following question:

  • My father is in his 90s and in frail health. He owns a house in the District [of Columbia], free and clear of any debt, and my cousin just told me that she now owns it. I am concerned that my cousin forged my dad's name on the deed. My father has always assured me that I would inherit the house, and he does not remember signing any documents. What should I do?

For his response, see Addressing concerns about fraudulent property deed transfers.
