Important Service Notice

Due to new federal reporting requirements affecting certain non-financed transfers of residential property to LLCs and other entities, Corvin’s Legal Services no longer prepares deeds transferring residential property directly into LLCs or other business entities. Clients needing this type of transfer should consult a real estate attorney or title/escrow professional.

Corvin’s Legal Services will continue to assist with trust transfers, trust funding deeds, and other non-transactional title changes. Recording services are provided only for documents prepared through this office
