Questions answered? Let's get started!
In California, a Mineral Quitclaim Deed (as per Civil Code Sections 1092, 1104-1107, 1113; Government Code Sections 27279-27297.7, 27320-27337) is used for transferring oil, gas, and mineral rights from the grantor to the grantee. It is a transfer of ownership, NOT A LEASE, and does not include exceptions or reservations.
Transfer Details: The deed transfers all kinds of mineral rights, including oil and gas. The grantor has the discretion to specify the percentage of mineral rights the grantee will receive.
Rights Conferred: This deed gives the grantee rights to access the land for mining, drilling, exploration, operation, development, storage, handling, transportation, and marketing of these minerals.
No Title Warranty: The grantor transfers mineral rights without any warranty of title, either express or implied, meaning the grantee accepts the title as it is, with all its potential discrepancies.
Uses: Mineral deeds with quitclaim are often used in situations where the grantor wants to quickly release any interest they might have in mineral rights, such as in settling estates, resolving disputes, clearing up uncertainties about ownership in a title's history or when mineral rights have previously been severed or fragmented from surface rights and cloud a title, making it difficult to transfer property. Resolution often involves the holder(s) of the mineral rights, quit-claiming any rights he/she/they have or might have in the subject property.
Legal Requirements and Recording: The quitclaim deed must be in writing and include the names and addresses of all parties involved, as required by Government Code Sections 27324, 27321.5, 27361.6, and 27288.1. It must be recorded by the County Recorder in the county where the property is located (Civil Code Section 1169) and adhere to California's "race-notice" recording statute (Civil Code Sections 1213-1214).
Formatting and Execution Requirements: The deed must follow specific formatting guidelines (Government Code Section 27361.6) and be executed before two disinterested witnesses. The names of all parties must be legibly signed or printed near the signature (Government Code Sections 27280.5, 27361.6).
Language and Other Considerations: Quitclaim deeds not in English are not suitable for recording (Government Code Section 27293). The deed should also include a complete legal description of the property and the vesting choice of the grantee.
Implications: The use of a quitclaim deed can have a permanent effect on property rights. It is advisable to consult a legal professional to fully understand the implications of executing such a document.

I am generally pleased with your products. However, I found it difficult to return to the package after accessing one selected document. One other comment: Your Trustee's Deed package should include a Certificate of Trust form.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The documents themselves are fine and the information provided with them is helpful. I find the actual processing of the documents, however, to be difficult particularly once the document has been saved. First, I note that the box for the date only allows entry of the last 2 digits of the year. Unfortunately, my download only allows me to enter one of the 2 digits required. When I delete it repeatedly, it eventually allows both digits to be entered but puts them in extremely small text and in superscrypt. I have not found a solution to this problem and am not sure the deed can even be recorded with this problem. Another problem is that if you try to revise the document after you have saved it the curser goes to the end of the line after each key entry. This means that there basically is no way to efficiently save the document for reworking later since you will have to delete everything you have entered in the text box unless you only need to make a single keystroke change or are willing to replace the curser after each entry. Try that with a long property description! Please note that I am using a Mac to prepare my documents and perhaps this is part of an "incompatibility problem". However, I didn't see a disclaimer regarding Mac use and so would expect the documents to perform correctly. Overall, I give the program a "2 star" rating because I am experiencing significant difficulties in entering dates in the documents even before saving them and because saving your work for later revision appears to be basically unworkable.
Thank you for your feedback Thomas, we appreciate you being specific about the issues you encountered. Adobe and Mac have a fairly long history of issues working together.
