Title Company vs. Lawyer

While not a requirement for property closings in Maryland, there are many reasons why hiring an attorney is a smart, responsible decision, including:

  • Professional liability insurance lawyers are required to carry. Most title companies do not have this insurance.
  • Protection of client's interests at all times, including while completing the paperwork and personally attending settlements.
  • The ability to represent you in a legal matter arising out of closing.
  • It often cost less to hire an attorney than it does to hire a title company.

  • Title search
