illegal property sale

[who dat]

I live in Texas and property (4 lots) was deeded to my brother when he was 12 years old by my grandfather. He died 2 years ago and we discovered that one of the losts was sold without a title search by our father would did not sign title after his name (.i.e. Sr., Jr.). I have spoke to several real estate attorney's who advise to let property go because it would cost more in legal fee's than property was worth. My brother, as legal owner has lost this lot eventhough he did nothing wrong and we have been paying the taxes on this property.

My response:

Okay, that's a nice story. Did you have a question?

The question is what is the least expensive way to obtain that lot back? Is this something that can be handled without legal representation?

My response:

Yes, this can be handled without legal representation. All you need to do is file your own lawsuit, In Propria Persona (On My Own Behalf), against the current "owner" in an action for "Quiet Title." Then, the "owner" would defend the action with his/her own attorney.

Thanks..... But two more questions under legal forms what would I use and once this is in place and owner hires representation at that point will I need representation?

My response:

Well, I thought you might get my hint, but you didn't. There is no "form" per se, for this type of an action. A full blown complaint must be drafted, and you would need to know the various precepts of case law, court rules, statutes, and the like. Okay, I'll come right out and say it - - you need an attorney.

Does it matter if the attorney does not specialize in real estate but knows what needs to be done?
