CLOSINGS AND TITLE INSURANCE

In the state of Florida, title insurance can be issued by an attorney. While the costs are typically the same for both attorneys and title companies, having a lawyer to look over all documents can greatly benefit your closing process. By law, a title company is limited to certain types of services and actions, hindering the amount of assistance they can provide. Most importantly, a title company representative cannot provide any legal advice or guidance.

If you retain our Firm, you not only get an experienced title insurance attorney handling your closing at the same cost as any title insurance company, but you get the added value of having a lawyer looking out for your best interests and walking with you through every step of your transaction.

WHY TITLE INSURANCE

For many in our community, buying or selling a property is one of the most important transactions they will ever be involved in. Though such real estate transactions may seem straightforward, there are numerous ways in which title to (and ownership of) the property can be at risk—which is why having the proper protection is critical.

Title insurance is crucial to the real estate transaction as it identifies and eliminates such risks in order to protect the title owner against any defects which would prevent them from clearly owning the property. With title insurance, your purchase is protected against fraud, legal confusion, clerical errors, or any other historical claims on your property. Title insurance is also required by most conventional lending institutions.
