It should be clear to anyone reading my initial post that @pacofms should consult a local attorney for this matter.

 

The statement at the end of my post was nothing more than a statement of fact, as an example, and was not intended to imply (or speculate) that the transfer from @pacofms to the spouse was for a nefarious purpose.


That wasn't what I was suggesting at all.  There are a lot of reasons not related to bad intentions, why you might want to change ownership of property, that still result in bad outcomes due to misunderstanding the laws.  (Such as, wanting to protect an asset in case someone needs expensive medical care, or wanting to avoid probate in case of a spouse with a serious illness.)
