Document background
The Quitclaim Deed For Name Change serves a specific purpose in U.S. property law, allowing property owners who have legally changed their name to update their property records accordingly. This document is commonly used after marriage, divorce, or court-ordered name changes to ensure property records accurately reflect the owner's current legal name. While not transferring any new property rights, it creates a clear chain of title by documenting the connection between the owner's previous and current names. The deed must comply with state-specific requirements and be properly recorded to maintain clear property records.
