Through negotiation and litigation of insurance and real property claims, he has helped clients recoup millions of dollars and resolved title issues to enable clients to exercise their lien rights. Through his involvement in the American Bar Association’s Title Insurance Litigation Committee, Spencer stays apprised of new developments in real property and title insurance law. He has also presented to the committee regarding title insurance issues from a lender’s perspective.
