Investigating Forged or Improper Deeds

Fraudulent property transfers often involve forged signatures, misrepresentations, or unauthorized transactions. Investigating these issues requires a thorough review of property records, title histories, and transactional documents. Common red flags include:

• Sudden transfers of property to family members or business associates without proper consideration.

• Altered or missing notarization on deeds.

• Claims of ownership by individuals with no legitimate interest in the property.

A real estate attorney can help uncover these fraudulent actions by conducting title searches, gathering evidence, and working with forensic experts if necessary. California law allows victims of fraudulent conveyances to challenge these transfers and seek legal remedies to restore rightful ownership.

Suits to Invalidate Fraudulent Transfers

If a fraudulent property transfer is identified, legal action must be taken to invalidate the transaction. Under California’s Uniform Voidable Transactions Act (UVTA), creditors and defrauded property owners can file lawsuits to reverse fraudulent conveyances and recover assets. The court considers several factors when determining fraud, such as:

• Whether the transfer was made without receiving fair market value.

• Whether the transferor was insolvent or became insolvent due to the transaction.

• Whether the transfer was made to hinder or delay creditors.
