Tip for any lawyers on board

When drawing a divorce settlement, if transfer is not done at time of settlement, always specify that a spouse shall execute whatever documents are needed to effect the transfer of any interest in real estate, and set a deadline.

Got a Louisiana quitclaim; needs two witnesses and ex-wife. Ex-wife doesn't like ex-husband (fancy that). She's dragging her feet and any other portion of her anatomy that will slow down the process.

Not a lawyer, but as a paralegal all

final judgments of dissolution of marriage we prepare which involve property contain a provision that says "Within ten (10) days of the entry of this judgment, the Husband shall execute a quit claim deed transferring all right, title and interest he may have in and to the marital home to the Wife. In the event the Husband fails to execute such deed within ten (10) days of the entry of this judgment, then this judgment shall act as a conveyance of the Husband's interest in the marital home to the Wife".

Back in my legal asst. days, it was the same as Robert's.

However, it does get left out and Hugh's tip is a good reminder.
