An assessor's map may legally describe a property in a deed if the map

has been filed in the county recorder's office.
is used for government purposes only.
is notarized by a lawyer.
is approved by a real estate agent.

The correct answer is: has been filed in the county recorder's office.

An assessor's map is a legal document used by government agencies to accurately identify and classify property for taxation purposes. It is typically filed and maintained in the county recorder's office, making it easily accessible for reference. Option B is incorrect because while an assessor's map may be used by government entities, it is not limited to government use only. Option C is also incorrect as notarization by a lawyer is not a requirement for the validity of an assessor's map. Similarly, option D is incorrect as the approval of a real estate agent is not necessary for an assessor's map to legally describe a property in a deed. Only option A accurately describes the legal implications of an assessor's map in regards to property descriptions.
