Review, object to and clear title commitments and policies with confidence.

This course equips legal professionals to review title insurance commitments and policies with a critical eye. You'll learn the types of title insurance policies and coverages, how covered risks, exclusions and exceptions work, and how to review the title commitment with a checklist, then work through the documents to review alongside the commitment and how to prepare "marked-up" title commitments and objection letters. Practical guidance covers clearing different title exceptions, closing protection letters and commonly requested endorsements, spot-checking the title insurance policy after issuance, and research resources for the final policy review.
