A: Not a lot of facts to go off of here, except that you are saying that you signed and recorded some quit claim deeds a few years ago while you lacked capacity and now you want to void the deed.

If you were under duress or undue influence by the person to whom you signed them over to, you could file suit against them. If they knew you were incapacitated and facilitated the transfer then they would be liable civilly and criminally.

You would have to give more facts. I do think you should talk to an attorney on this one though.

I hope this helps.
