Abstracter and Title Insurance Agent
Lawyers who act as abstracters or title insurance agents in the course of providing legal services may wish to add this coverage by endorsement. The endorsement defines an abstracter as someone who prepares a summary of the recorded events that affect title to real property, including memoranda, certificates issued in lieu of abstracts, notes and references to chains of title, name searches, and tax and assessment searches.
A title insurance agent refers to a person who acts as an authorized agent for a title insurance company. The title insurance agent must be a licensed agent in good standing with the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance of Wisconsin. There is no additional premium for this supplemental coverage.
