Description

Title insurance plays a critical role in insuring against certain risks for all parties to a real estate sales transaction including liens or other encumbrances on the property that could restrict its transferability and use. Practitioners must understand the intricate details of title insurance policies to effectively advise property owners, investors, lenders, and developers. They should also understand the most recent ALTA policy provisions and commonly used endorsements.

Listen as our expert panel provides a comprehensive overview of title insurance for new attorneys. The panel will discuss the role of title insurance in the sales transaction, necessary policy provisions and endorsements, and best practices for evaluating coverage for clients.
