How to transfer property when owners are deceased?

Question

There was a little problem with a will that was left. The house did not go into my dad's name. It has been about nine years now and the house is still in his parents name. How does he go about transferring the title of the house from the deceased owners into his name? This is in LA county in CA.

Answer 1

If there was a will, the will had an executor or executrix named.  Call that person and find out why the title was not changed and get him or her to do it.

Answer 2

Consult an attorney.
