[WSBARP] Seller's Claim Against Closing Officer

[Scott R. Weaver]

Any of you dealt with this situation?


  1.  Closing officer / title insurance failed to identify an easement that was recorded against title.
  2.  Buyer learns of easement and alleges it devalues the property.
  3.  Buyer sues seller and the closing officer/title insurance.

Based on initial research, Seller has a negligence claim and indemnification claim against closing officer/title insurance.

If you have had such a case, I would love to look over the pleadings and briefing in the court file if you don't mind sharing the cause number, etc.

Thx!

Scott
