Minimizing Litigation Risks and Navigating Legal Jeopardy During Commercial Closings
Stewart NCS Title Tenets Webinar
April 2023
Through a combination of unique industry anecdotes and case study analysis, this presentation will examine both common and uncommon legal risks that can potentially arise before, during and after commercial real estate transaction closing. The primary goal of this presentation will be to help CRE professionals raise awareness of possible litigation pitfalls through detailed legal analysis of real-life examples of commercial sale and loan transactions that went awry.
We will discuss emerging legal issues in the world of title insurance, including recent interpretations of key terms and conditions in standard form lender’s policies, expanded indemnity due under closing protection letters and other developments. We will also discuss ways in which insured owners and lenders can implement effective strategies for identifying potential triggers to coverage and how to handle the claims process as mortgagors and mortgagees.
