Why Legal Counsel Matters in Real Estate Closings

At Cadence Title, clients benefit from the in-house presence of Lia Law Firm PLLC—ensuring every transaction is reviewed from both a legal and title perspective. This added layer of oversight can prevent costly mistakes, delays, or disputes down the line.
