Title scrutiny for lawyers & firms.
For the people who have to stand behind the report: how the machine helps without taking over, and where a title goes wrong.
The machine reads faster than you ever will. That is the only reason to let it. The judgement stays with you.
TSR versus LSR
A Title Search Report is the examination of the property’s legal standing. A Legal Opinion (or LSR) is the advocate’s formal opinion on it, usually in a bank format. One feeds the other. Getting the title search right makes the opinion straightforward.
How AI assists
The reading is the long part: page after page of deeds, ECs and revenue records. AI does that reading and flags what looks off, each flag cited to its page. The judgement is still yours. You weigh the flags, decide which are real, and take the call.
Preparing the file
The depth of the check tracks the documents you hand over. Give the complete chain, the EC over the full period, and the revenue record. A partial file produces a partial report, and an incomplete chain is a finding in itself.
Common pitfalls
An unregistered GPA, a lis pendens that nobody read, a gap between the deed and the FMB, a benami structure, and succession that was never probated. These are the places titles go wrong, and they are rarely visible in a skim.
How LexRam helps
