Q: A quitclaim deed was filed as Interspousal but the notary name is the same as the person transferring property.
The person transferring the property was not a notary. How do I reverse
A: tHIS is NOT a 'workers compensation' matter, nor is it family law. But it might be criminal! The Notary Attestation indicates that Notary was provided legally-adequate proof that person signing was who they claimed to be. I was a Notary Public for 20 years, and a Notary may never "witness" their own signature. So A COPY OF THIS DOCUMENT SHOULD BE FORWARDED TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE which commissions Notaries, they need to know a notary is mis-using the commission. The document might be 'filed' but no title company or government entity will recognize it as being valid. The Quitclaim Deed needs to be properly attested and witnessed. What you describe here is not.
