What Is A Quiet Title Action?
Whether you currently own property or are in the market to buy or sell, it is vital to ensure that the title to that property is clear of any competing claims or other potential issues.

What Situations Require a Quiet Title Action?
In addition to resolving competing claims, such as family disputes over ownership, quiet title actions serve an important role in helping property owners reaffirm their rights when various issues arise. These can include instances of forged deeds, coercion, illegal occupation, boundary disagreements, or the necessity of clearing an easement to establish clear property lines. If you find yourself in a situation where you have lost property due to a court-ordered or tax sale and believe that the sale was conducted improperly or unfairly, pursuing a quiet title action may provide you with the opportunity to challenge that outcome effectively.
Conversely, if you have purchased property through one of these contested sales, filing a quiet title action can be a crucial step in removing any lingering claims or encumbrances from previous owners, thereby solidifying and securing your ownership rights in the property for the future. This process not only protects your investment but also ensures peace of mind as you navigate your property ownership journey.
What Happens in a Quiet Title Action?
Your attorney will present evidence to the court showing that you are the rightful owner of the property. In many cases, if the other party’s claim dates back many years, they may not appear at the hearing. If they do appear, the court will consider their claims as well. If the decision is in your favor, the other party will no longer be able to challenge your ownership. Depending on the complexity, this process can take anywhere from two to six months to complete.
Because so much is at stake, it’s important to have an experienced real estate attorney handling your quiet title claim. Cavalier Law Group, P.A. has successfully guided clients through this process and can provide the support you need to resolve your property title issues.
