Can a Lawyer Clear a Title Defect That Is Preventing Me From Selling or Refinancing My Property?

Yes. A title defect can prevent a sale, delay refinancing, or make it difficult to establish clear ownership. Common problems include an incorrect deed description, unresolved liens, competing ownership claims, boundary issues, adverse possession claims, mechanic’s liens, and old mortgages or judgments that remain on the record.
