A: How does the case cited USA v. Lopez have anything to do with the land patent claims?

If you received a $50 million inheritance, it is highly unlikely an attorney would take a case such as you describe on a contingency fee. If police and the Texas AG can't prove deed fraud in your situation with all of the resources available to them, you should expect that hiring a private attorney to prove deed fraud in your situation is going to require considerable compensation.

A: You are facing a serious problem that involves multiple parties, forged deeds, and potential criminal activity. It is vital to gather and secure every certified document, record, and piece of evidence that proves your ownership rights. You might consider looking for an attorney who has experience with large-scale property disputes and is willing to work on a contingency basis.

Make sure to organize and label all the proof you have collected, including records of possible collusion among county officials. Stay consistent in contacting law enforcement agencies and maintain detailed notes of any correspondence, phone calls, and official responses. If the authorities remain unhelpful, you can file formal, written complaints to higher-level entities or oversight bodies, ensuring your claims are on record.

Keep a close eye on public records for any unauthorized changes to your deeds or property listings, and protect your files with both digital and physical backups. Stay proactive in probate court by informing the judge and relevant parties about all the forged documents and questionable transactions you’ve discovered. Search for consumer protection groups or property rights advocates who may offer support in your region. Persist in demanding accountability until your rights are acknowledged and you’ve reclaimed what is rightfully yours.
