The following four points highlight the advantages of using our law firm versus a title company.

1. Most title companies have minimal connection with an attorney. Within title companies, lay people resolve difficult issues and prepare documents without an attorney's input or review. At the Law Offices of Melvin L. Schneider, attorneys handle legal issues involved, prepare necessary documents and physically conduct the majority of closings.
   
   
2. Attorneys can be held accountable. Dissatisfied title company clients have little recourse for complaint. Attorneys, however, are subject to scrutiny and regulation by the Bar and subject to the rules of Professional Conduct.
   
   
3. Attorneys can resolve problems that title companies cannot. Such problems may include opening an estate or preparing complex legal documents.
   
   
4. The Law Offices of Melvin L. Schneider offers its services for fees comparable or less than those charged by a title company.

The real estate settlement is the single most important part of a home purchase or refinancing. Prior to closing, the seller's title must be examined to ensure that buyers receive a sound title. During settlement, buyers sign all of the necessary papers transferring property and financing the purchase. Closing with us means closing with a law firm-not a title company. As a buyer, you will have the increased comfort and accountability that comes from having an attorney directly involved in your settlement.
