In West Virginia a Deed of Trust can be released by a Beneficiary/Lender or by a Trustee. This form is used by the current Lender, holder of the note or notes. For use when the note or notes have been satisfied and a full release is required. (Such release shall be executed and furnished to the debtor within thirty days after the debt has been satisfied.) (WV. Article 12. 38-12-1) (a))
Such release of lien shall be executed by the lienholder and acknowledged before the clerk of the county commission in whose office the lien is recorded or before such other person authorized to take acknowledgments of deeds. Such written release shall be deemed sufficient if it describes the lien to be released by any words that will identify and show an intent to discharge the same. Releases may also be made according to the provisions of section two of this article. (WV. Article 12. 38-12-1) (b))
38-12-8. Recordation of release; effect.
When the release has been so signed and acknowledged, it may be presented for record to the clerk in whose office the lien thereby intended to be released is recorded or docketed, and from and after the time the same is so left for record (which time the clerk shall endorse thereon) such lien shall be discharged and extinguished, and the estate, of whatever kind, bound or affected thereby, shall be deemed to be vested in the former owner or those claiming under him as if such lien had never existed
If a release is not executed as described, the lienholder can be liable to pay,( at the cost of the lienholder who so refuses without good cause and the court shall also award reasonable attorney fees and court costs to the person entitled to such release if such person be the prevailing party.)

why not word format??
Good question. There are many reasons, we'll touch on a few. For the end user (you) Adobe Reader is free, Word is not. PDF is the portable document standard, Word is a decent word processor. A portable document format (PDF) maintains document formatting such as margins and font size which is very important to legal documents, Word does not. Have a wonderful day.

I used the quitclaim deed form, it was easy to fill out, had notarized and was accepted by the county's recorders office. Having a example form made it so much easier to fill out.
Thank you for your positive words! We’re thrilled to hear about your experience.

The form was exactly what we needed and the directions were spot on and perfectly clear. Filling out government forms can be an experience filled with anxiety but deeds.com made it easy and practically worry free.
Thanks Randy, we really appreciate your feedback.

Your forms are great but I couldn’t use them with my computer and acrobats reader didn’t work. And then my thermal printer would only print 1/3 size pages with no way to fix it. I ordered a new color printer and we’ll see what happens.
Thank you, Lutz. We're glad you like the forms, and we're sorry getting them working turned into such a hassle. That shrunken page is typical of thermal printers: most use narrow receipt or label paper, so a full page gets scaled down to fit, and no setting can change that. Thermal paper also fades over time, which you don't want on a document you're recording, so the new printer is the right call. When it arrives, print on plain white paper with “Actual size” selected in the print settings so the page comes out full size with its margins intact. If Acrobat Reader gives you trouble again, save the form to your computer first and open the saved file in Acrobat Reader rather than in your web browser. Still stuck? Contact our support team and we'll walk you through it.
