Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Oklahoma
Quit Claim Deed
My Mother owns the mineral rights to a small property. We want to do a ''Quit claim Deed'' in favor of my sister and myself in order to avoid problems in event of her death.
Can I do this by mail with the county clerk or do I need a lawyer? I have a copy of another deed that was done to use as a ''boiler plate''.

Re: Quit Claim Deed
To answer your question, a quitclaim is not a proper instrument. You don't own anything to release. Further, title companies hate quitclaims. At any rate, if your mother is still alive, and she wants the property to go to the sister, just have mother execute a will. You can have one professionally done for a few hundred dollars, depending on where she lives.
