ATG / Advocus was founded in 1964 on the premise that consumers need an attorney-advocate when purchasing or selling a home. Today, we believe attorney-involvement in real estate transactions is at risk:
- We are seeing more transactions where sellers and their lawyers are being told to order title work from a specific company. This violates the Title Insurance Act and RESPA.
- There is a trend toward non-lawyers acting as title agents, which poses risks if they lack proper training and skills to perform core title services.
We look forward to discussing these issues and more. We also want to hear your experiences and ideas. Join us!
