Q. A deed was not recorded transferring ownership to a trust until 6 weeks after death is it valid in NY

January 27, 2025

A: Although the recording of the deed provides a public record of the transfer of the property to the trustee of the trust, it does not necessarily have to happen immediately or even before the grantor dies. It has more to do with the delivery of the deed to the trustee.

Also, the schedule listing the property provides evidence of the grantor's intent.

During the notice period, the landlord would be responsible for damage to the stored belongings if found negligent. You mention you were or are to inherit 1/4 of the property. This lead me to believe there have been estate proceedings addressing the real property leading to the eviction proceeding. ... Read More

Q. LLC has not responded to a complaint filed, how do I go about getting a default judgment against the LLC?

January 13, 2025

A: Generally, a plaintiff can file a motion for a default judgment in court or possibly seek an application of default before the clerk. Besides New York statutory laws (mostly the CPLR), each particular court and/or Judge may have their own rules for submitting such a motion or application.
