Thank you.
Hey ****! It's great to hear from you. Could you please share a bit more about your legal issue so I can provide the best information or guidance for you?
I live in Greece and I am guarantor to my son. He has taken a loan on the apartment upstairs from from * and pays it off slowly every month. In the meantime he has stopped talking to me and I want to write over my apartment to my daughter so she won't have any problems with my son. We both have the same attorney and when I asked the attorney can I break from being a guarantor he said no. I have to wait until the loan is paid off and that won't be for about another * odd years and Im nearly *. I don't want to believe he is not helping me on purpose out of loyalty to my son. Is there a way I can break from being a guarantor and write over my property to my daughter?
Hey ****! Here's some general information that might help you:
- As a guarantor, you are typically bound by the terms of the loan agreement until it is fully paid off, unless the lender agrees to release you.
- You can transfer your property to your daughter through a legal process such as a gift deed, but it's essential to consult with a different lawyer for advice specific to your situation.
Would you like to explore the option of consulting a different attorney to assist you further?
Yes please walk me through this process as I'm not savvy in legal terms as when I became guarantor I was assured many times that my presence was not needed at the attorney for different matters

Transferring property and changing guarantor status involves complex legal steps. For transferring your property to your daughter, you may consider the following:
- Gift Deed: This is a legal document used to transfer ownership without monetary exchange. You'll need a lawyer to draft and register it.
- Consult a Different Lawyer: Since you feel your current attorney may not be acting in your best interest, seeking a second opinion could be beneficial.
Would you like to discuss connecting with a different lawyer for more detailed guidance?
Yes I would be interested. I live in Greece in the Athens/Piraeus area
