Title name change question....?

Ok, my husbands grandfather passed away. He left everything to his daughter. She gave us his car. Its paid off and we have the title. How do I put this car in my name? Do I need a death certificate first and how long do I have to notify DMV? Im in California if that makes a difference.Title name change question....?
Whomever is the executor/executrix, must sign over the title to you. You then take that title to your DMV and get a title, etc in your name. The executor/executrix will need a death certificate, but you will not.Title name change question....?
You have or rather your daughter has opened you up for a world of hurt. Is she the Estate Executrix? Hope so, If she is she must sign HER name on the transfer section of the title along with her Proof of Executrix or rather proof that she is able legally to perform this duty. Then submit to your DMV along with your application for Title %26amp; Registration. It may take a little longer due to the complexities of this matter (any time a deal varies from the norm for ANYTHING the workers tend to be VERY cautious most times Overly so to protect Themselves) Expect to sit and wait awhile. Good luckTitle name change question....?
She has to take the title of that car, and a copy of the will or executor agreement, and sign it over to you.
