Quiet Title

When there is a dispute, or it is unclear, as to who owns a piece of real estate, Georgia law allows a person to seek to “quiet title” to that real estate. This may include the cancellation of an old lien, mortgage or security deed which was paid off but was not cancelled by accident.  We also resolve ownership issues after the death of an owner to confirm title is vested in the heirs.

The court will declare who owns the real estate, and whether any liens, easements, security deeds, etc. are valid.

Attorney Jim Fletcher has handled hundreds of quiet title cases in Georgia and will help resolve title issues promptly, efficiently, and at a minimum of expense. Our firm will work hard to protect your rights in your property.

Tax Deeds

Mr. Fletcher has handled the foreclosure of the right to redeem and subsequent quiet title actions on hundreds of Georgia tax deeds.

Mr. Fletcher and a team of paralegals have processes to promptly clear title after tax sales across the State of Georgia.

Surplus / Excess Funds

When a foreclosure sale, tax sale, bankruptcy sale, or similar sale yields proceeds which exceed the creditor's claim, there may be "excess" or "surplus" funds. Similarly, there may be 'unclaimed' property located which was owed to someone, and we assist with claims to such funds.

Those amounts may be owed to another creditor, the former owner, an estate or heirs, or another. We have helped MANY claimants fight to maximize their recovery, even when it seemed hopeless.
