broken image

Formed in 1964 by Illinois attorneys to expand lawyer participation in real estate transactions, Attorneys' Title Guaranty Fund, Inc. (ATG), remains the state's sole Bar-Related title insurance underwriter. ATG champions legal professionals and clients through its attorney agents network, enabling integrated title policy issuance and ongoing real estate representation.

Through years of growth fueled by unmatched service and competitive pricing, the organization has built up a commanding market share and robust financial profile. In addition to earning recognition on Crain's largest Chicago private companies list for five years in a row, ATG has maintained Demotech's highest financial stability rating since 1995 and an A- claims-paying ability score from Kroll.

ATG maintains a support directory connecting buyers and sellers to lenders and attorneys. The directory channels requests to transaction support teams, commercial title specialists, and underwriting experts who can assist with title-related questions. ATG attorney agents, meanwhile, receive direct access to policy lookups, title orders, and tailored contact information for real estate lawyers and clients nationwide.
