Brian Buchanan Esq
Committed Criminal Fraud. My retirement home was given to my son (50%) without my signature

My son's name was put on a real estate contract without my consent. I wanted it removed but the agent said that only the attorney could do that. I did not initial
my son's name and was told that the attorney would be notified. I was told that the attorney would call me. He never did call. The reason my son's name was mentioned was that I just asked the real estate agent if North Carolina had a deed that would put my son's name on the deed so when I died he would not have to pay taxes. That was it. I saw an attorney in Md. Who told me that was not a good idea.

I called the attorney 3 times before closing to tell him that I did not want my son's name on the deed. The attorney did not return my calls. 3 days before settlement the attorney called me to tell me to wire the funds since I was paying cash for the property. No mortgage. I said to the attorney did you get the message that I did not want my son's name on the deed. His comment: Everything is the way you want it Mr. Larrick. I wired the funds to him.

3 weeks later I got the closing papers, I never saw anything or was told by the attorney what was in the settlement papers. So I did not sign anything. Then is when I found out that my son owned 50% of the value of the house. It is a state law that I have to sign the closing statement and also sign a contract stating that I wanted my son's name on the deed. Of course I did not sign anything.

I tried taking it to court to have my son removed from the house and what that got me was a life estate. I was told that meant I full rights to the home. I could sell it, I could take a loan on it. That was all a lie. That made my son a 100% owner of the home. That took me 2 years to find that out.
