I grew up in Cape Girardeau and the majority of my family still lives in the area. As an estate planning lawyer, I have been consulted as a subject matter expert by the Southeast Missourian and KFVS12. I am a Member of Southeast Missouri State University’s Planned Giving Advisory Council and supporter of Southeast’s River Campus. You can trust my experience to design the right estate plan for you and your loved ones. It will provide you peace of mind and bring you financial benefits as well.
A Missouri Affidavit of Heirship needs to be properly drafted, signed, notarized and filed with the county recorder’s office. Once complete, the heirs can receive clear title on the land. This is important so if the heirs decide to sell the land, they can get full fair market value since the potential buyer can obtain title insurance.
If you have property title in a deceased individuals name and need help getting it transferred to living heirs or getting it sold, contact Mark McMullin, a Missouri attorney with experience you can trust.
