Questions answered? Let's get started!
When a decedent dies intestate (without a will), fails to designate a personal representative (PR) in his or her will, or the named PR is unable or unwilling to serve, the court appoints a PR called an administrator.
Use an administrator's deed after the district court has issued an order for sale of the subject real property to convey the property from the estate.
The deed must meet all state and local standards for content and form, and includes a recitation of facts concerning the administrator, the decedent, the order for sale, and the subject property being transferred. The PR signs the completed document in the presence of a notary public prior to recording.
Depending on the nature of the transfer, it may require supplemental documentation. Consult a lawyer with questions about estate administration in Kansas.

I liked the software, it's very easy to use. Once it's saved as a .pdf document on your computer, the source document is lost when you log out. I wish it could be saved and then edited on their site later instead of having to create a new document from scratch each time.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Your website advertising was somewhat deceptive regarding doing a quitclaim on a name change. "If you are transferring the property to yourself under your new name, all you have to do is update the deed from your former name to your current one." This made this sound easy. But when I downloaded the material for my state, expecting to find an example, there was no example of how to do a name change quitclaim deed! I therefore had to figure this out myself. You might have provided a warning about certain uses that were not covered in the material so that people know ahead of time that the use they needed to know about wasn't covered in the material.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Since the recorder's office is closed, due to Covid, this worked well to submit my Quit Claim Deed. I was a bit confused with the direction and download. But, I think I got her done! We'll see if I get recorded and confirmation is received. I may be back
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
