Q: I have a Lady Bird deed on my condo both my childrens names are on it, My son wants my daughter to be the sole air.
I did register the deed with both their names on it and when I pass away what has to be done to transfer the condo to one of them. I need a Lawyer in Macomb County near Mt. Clemens. MI
A: The power of a properly drafted lady bird deed is that you maintain 100% control over the property until the time of your death. To cancel your initial intentions, you could either revoke the earlier deed, or have your son quit claim his interest off the current deed to your daughter. Conveying property interests or preparing estate planning tools without the assistance of a qualified attorney has consequences.
