[WSBARP] Divorce and Separate Property

[Jeanne Dawes]

Real property not disposed of in divorce decree is held by the parties as tenants in common.  If you cannot get a deed or modify the order, you may be stuck doing a quiet title action.

Subject: [WSBARP] Divorce and Separate Property

Wife owned property as separate estate. H&W subsequently get divorced. The Final decree state that there was "No property" (wrong box checked). Title Company wants quitclaim from husband. Husband no where to be found.

What is best course? Seeking a modification of the final decree? Quiet title against former husband? Service of process will be next to impossible, so service by publication will have to be route. Any other simpler solutions?
