What is the Louisiana Easement Deed?

Louisiana law recognizes servitudes, which are similar to easements and can be defined as a burden or charge on one property that is for the benefit of another property. There are two types of servitudes: predial and personal (CC 533). A predial servitude is closely related to an easement appurtenant and is a burden on the servient estate for the benefit of the dominant of estate. A personal servitude is a charge or burden on something for the benefit of an individual. The three types of personal servitude are: usufruct (the use of property for a benefit as long as it is not damaged), habitation, and right-of-use (this is similar to an easement while allowing use of the property but denying full enjoyment of the property) (CC 534). A usufruct can be established by juridical act or by operation of law (CC 544).

As an interest in real property (immovable property) in Louisiana, an easement deed or servitude is subject to the laws of other real estate instruments. The grantor to an easement deed should sign the instrument and have his or her signature acknowledged. Some recording clerks in Louisiana will require the signature to be in authentic form, which although not a statutory requirement is nonetheless a common practice in Louisiana. An instrument in authentic form requires the signature of each party who executed the instrument. Easement deeds may be acknowledged in Louisiana or out-of-state. If executed out of state, an easement will have the same force and effect as if executed by or before a notary public in Louisiana (RS 35:5).

There are three different types of written instruments in Louisiana: the authentic act, the act under private signature duly acknowledged, and the act under private signature or writing. The authentic act is used for most deeds and recorded documents. An authentic act is executed in writing before a notary public, in the presence of two witnesses, and signed by each party who executed the warranty deed or other instrument. Both the witnesses and notary public must sign. The act under private signature duly acknowledged is a written instrument signed before a notary public. The presence of witnesses is not required for the signing of this type of document; however, witnesses need to be present when the notary signs. The act under private signature is not used often.

Easement deeds and other real estate instruments are recorded in the parish at the clerk of courts office in the parish where the real property (immovable) is located. An easement deed is not effective against third persons until the easement deed is filed for registry in the conveyance records of the parish where the real property is located (CC 517). This type of recording act is known as a race statute. Priority of documents is determined by the order of filing.

Review: Holy cow. I was told by several people that getting a deed recorded would take 7-10 days. So I thought I'd give deeds.com a try with their e-filing service. I created my account and submitted my deed around 4:00 p.m. and it was recorded before I woke up the next morning. Awesome service! Totally worth the $19 service fee.

Review: 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.

Review: It was easy to download the form I wanted BUT there were 2 other options listed for "open/download." I didn't want to risk more charges for something I couldn't determine I needed so I passed them up. There were a few others listed with the option to "view" so I did that, without down-loading, and there were no additional charges. I would've liked that opportunity for 2 others that didn't offer "view" so maybe deeds.com missed a sale?

Review: The Executor's Guide needs more info about what to put for grantee (estate of deceased or my name as executor?) and the price (something nominal like $10?) before there is a buyer. The guide seems to use only one example.
