Questions answered? Let's get started!

Lis pendens are like property liens, and they can make properties unmarketable or non-saleable until they're removed. Notices of voluntary dismissal and release of lis pendens declarations are issued frequently when lawsuits are dismissed.

When a Release of Lis Pendens document is filed it must contain a proof of service which is an acknowledgment of service by the person served or a certificate of service. In some cases, the clerk will permit a document to be filed but will require the proof of service to be filed promptly thereafter. 9.5(d)

Important: Your property must be located in Houston County to use these forms. Documents should be recorded at the county recording office listed above.

This Lis Pendens Release meets all recording requirements specific to Houston County.

The Personal Representatives Deed is definitely a helpful document for my files. I find it need just a little tweaking by deeds.com , There should be more space for the legal description. I did see in the FAQ's you recommend putting it in the Exhibit and this is what I did. Also I couldn't get the year to be accepted and had to write it in. These are just some minor suggestions, on the whole I was grateful to find this document. Thank you.
