Question : how to take the decedent’s name off a joint car ownership in california?
My grandpa and I are both owners of a car. He passed away recently. I can’t live without a car, so i don’t want the car get held up on probate. Is it anyway i can take his name of the registration without a lawyer’s help?

Not sure about CA but in WA you just need to show a death certificate at the DMV to have his name taken off of the title/registration
dont have to do anything to keep paying for new registration
if your selling it to someone just sign his name
i wouldnt worry about it stil your car either way
