AmTrust Title Insurance Co. announced new hires for its operations in New York, Texas, and the North Atlantic region.

Margaret Ling joined the company’s New York agency division as business development and underwriting counsel. The 25-year industry veteran was senior counsel at Big Apple Abstract Corp. and senior underwriting counsel at MacGregor Abstract Abstract Corp., New York Title Services and First Nationwide Title Agency, LLC. Ling also worked at First American Title National Commercial Services, Fidelity National Title Group, and Stewart Title. She began her career as an attorney specializing in residential and commercial real estate law and business and corporate transactions.

“Margaret has a wealth of real estate knowledge with over 25 years of experience in the title insurance industry, both working for title insurance underwriters and title agents,” AmTrust Title’s New York Agency Division Manager James Thanasules said in a release. “She understands the needs of title agents and how to best service them.”

“Margaret is a tremendous asset to our agency base,” AmTrust Title President Jason Gordon added. “She organizes and presents many vibrant continuing legal education and networking events on the latest important topics in real estate, and she continues to be involved and engaged with the New York bar associations and real estate community.”

Mike Watson joined AmTrust Title as Texas agency manager. The 30-year industry veteran spent more than 15 years with Stewart Title, according to his LinkedIn profile, most recently as vice president and senior agency services manager for the Texas Gulf Coast Division and Louisiana. He was also senior vice president - national and multi-state agency services, and vice president - agency services manager of South and West Texas.

“I’m excited to join the AmTrust Title team and I look forward to the agency growth opportunities and collaboration with AmTrust’s independent agency partners in Texas,” Watson said.  “AmTrust Title’s leadership vision, entrepreneurial nature and company culture are what attracted me.”

“Mike has been deeply embedded in the title insurance industry for 30 years, including many years in agency services management,” Gordon said. “We are thrilled that he has joined AmTrust to bolster our team and help further build our capabilities in Texas and Louisiana.”

Jack Sudol is the company’s new senior agency representative in the North Atlantic region. He has worked in the industry for 18 years, most recently as vice president and New Jersey state manager for CATIC.

Sudol has experience signing and servicing hundreds of policy-issuing agents throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania and preparing marketing plans and assisting clients with their sales strategies.  He is also proficient at reviewing escrow reconciliations and potential defalcations.

“Jack brings deep knowledge of the New Jersey and Pennsylvania markets to AmTrust Title,” North Atlantic Agency Regional Manager Michael Frederick said. “With a 20-year career spanning property management, audit and title insurance, Jack has a profound understanding of all the important aspects of our business and will be pivotal in increasing our agency base.”
