Sellers Closing Lawyer Put 5 Lots Instead Of My 1 Plot On The Deed.

Card image cap

Hello all. I closed on my house in January, and 2 days ago got contacted by the, seller of my houses, lawyer who makes the contracts. I live in Georgia and have a house that was built on 2 lots. When being sold to me, I was told the 2 lots were split into 3 lots, and mine was the middle lot. There are no houses around me. Well when I get a call from this lawyer he says that basically he needs me to sign some paperwork and glosses over the fact that he messed up and put all 3 lots on my contract. I went to look at the copy I have and it's not just 3 lots. ITS FIVE LOTS. I don't know what to do. Have I been paying taxes on 5 lots since I closed in January? How do I proceed? I don't want to sign it over yet just in case I get screwed over and don't know the facts of this mess up. Would they have to reimburse me for taxes? In going to add that 3 of the lots are on my left, and 1 lot to my right. I don't know what to do. Please help!
