Quiet Title

quiet title action is a legal process used to resolve disputes over property ownership and establish a clear title. If there are competing claims to a property, errors in public records, or uncertainty about ownership, filing a quiet title lawsuit can help eliminate these issues and provide legal certainty.

You may need a quiet title action if:

  • There are conflicting ownership claims on a property.

  • The property has a clouded title due to unpaid liens, missing heirs, or errors in past deeds.

  • You purchased a property through tax foreclosure or auction, and the title needs to be cleared.

  • You inherited a property, but ownership records are unclear or disputed.

  • A previous owner’s name is still on the title due to clerical errors or unresolved legal matters.

  • You need to confirm ownership after someone improperly claimed rights to the property (such as adverse possession).
