Is There A Time That The Quick Claim Deed Is Permanent And Binding?

My parents quicklime their house to my sis and i 5 years ago. They were 89 at the time. My mom has passed and my dad is not well. Is there a time--let's say 5 years--that the quick claim deed is permanent and binding?? I have a nephew that is in the will and i am afraid he is going to want whatever he can get his hands on (rarely see the boy)

    The laws of each State are different and the details of the quit claim deed are also a factor, however usually a quit claim deed is effective once it is signed and recorded with the State where you live. If it is not recorded with your State that does not necessarily void the deed. You should consult the State Bar where you live as they usually have a referral service for a attorney to review this issue with you for a nominal fee.

      If the quit claim deed was signed, notarized, and recorded at the courthouse then it is legally binding and no one can take that house from you. That is how it is in the State of Florida. I would think it is the same all over America but I am not sure. You could make an appointment with a paralegal for a small fee to have the question answered or consult an atty..
