Attorneys and title insurance agents are on the front lines of all real estate transactions. While most go smoothly, it’s essential to understand the complexities and nuances of each real estate transaction. Proactively considering potential solutions to a problem can determine if your deal will lead to a dead end or the closing table.
Judgments, tax liens, survey issues, recording errors, clouds on title, and family transfers are just a few potential obstacles. This one-hour continuing legal education seminar will delve into real-life case studies and discuss how they were resolved.
Presented by LEAP Legal Software and featuring title insurance veteran James B Jordan Jr, The Sagas of Title Insurance will provide attorneys with tools to help navigate complex residential and commercial real estate transactions.
