    Default Quit Deed-Divorce

    in January 2002 my wife and i purchased a home. my wifes brother who's a real estate agent handled the purchase and the mortgage docs. the whole nine yards. when signing docs he said we should finance the home only under my wife name, his sister, to get a lower rate due to me having bad credit.
    he had me sign some docs which i signed not knowing what i was signing.
    turns out i signed a quit deed with out knowledge.
    fast forward almost 4 years. i am filing for divorce and my wife informed me of what i have done when discussing division of the property.
    is there any way to fight this? she wants to give me nothing using the quit deed as leverage. we have over $200,000.00 in equity.
    also, can i file a fraud case against her brother?

    Explain the circumstances to the court, and argue that it remains marital property.

    If you think there may have been fraud, discuss this with your divorce lawyer.
