With an office staff approaching 200, Pierce and Associates
has developed a strong Management and Quality Control system.
Pierce and Associates has an executive management group consisting of
its three senior managing attorneys, Denis Pierce, Kathy File, and
Sylvia Neumann. Also in the group are the Managing Attorneys, Jill
Rein, Andrew Nelson and Diana Athanasopoulos and Lorie Schlaffer, the
Operations Manager. This group is responsible for the overall
management of the firm.
There are 16 separate Departments in the office, each headed by a
Department Supervisor. All of our Supervisors have at least five years
of experience with Pierce and Associates, and some of them have more
than 20 years with the firm. They are assisted by Department
Coordinators and staff members. Supervisors have regular Supervisory
meetings, as well as weekly Department meetings to review new
procedures and policies as well cover processing and performance issues
and staffing levels.
We also have a number of standing Committees including our Operations
Committee, Disaster Recovery Committee, Marketing Committee, Compliance
Committee, Technology Support Committee, Celebration Committee, and IT
Experts.
Through our various departments and committees, we have developed a
strong system to continually monitor and enhance performance and
processing resulting in exceptional timeline performance and
communication both within and outside of our office.

| Nearly
thirty years ago, Pierce and Associates established its own in-house
title insurance company. We are also registered title insurance agents
for First American Titile Insurance Co., Ticor Title Insurance Co., a
division of Fidelity Title Insurance Co., and Attorney Title Guaranty
Fund, a local title company owned and operated by Illinois attorneys.
As such we are able to perform virtually all of the services offered by
a commercial title insurance company. Our 30 years in the default title
business has given us an expertise that is not found in a traditional
title insurance company. We have also established a Title Curative
Department to help resolve the many title issues we are seeing these
days. We have the experience to solve title problems, and to
efficiently and quickly close REO deals. |
