TITLE INSURANCE

South Carolina property owners need to be aware that in recent years Native American tribes have made successful claims to take control of traditional lands currently owned by private citizens. Lumpkin, Oxner & Stacy can assist in the purchase of Title Insurance that protects the landowner in case their property is reverted back to any Native American tribe. Attempts to contest this loss of property have been largely unsuccessful with the US government attempting to honor centuries old treaties with Indian organizations regardless of the current ownership history.

The firm's experienced real estate attorneys provide legal advice on all aspects of dealing with commercial and residential property, including:

Mortgages / Foreclosures / Leases / Quiet Title Actions / Title Examination / Litigation / Management
