Law Firm Forms Default, REO Divisions

Morris/Hardwick/Schneider, an Atlanta-based real estate closing law firm, has announced the formation of two new mortgage service divisions: National Default Services and National REO. The default services unit was established through a merger with Wittstadt & Wittstadt, a Baltimore-based law firm. M/H/S said the merger enables the firm to "offer the full spectrum of end-to-end lender services -- from loss mitigation to foreclosure to REO to resale." In addition, it broadens the area served by M/H/S and its title company, LandCastle Title, by adding Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware, and Washington, D.C., to its existing area, which includes Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, and Tennessee.
