North American Title Insurance Co. (NATIC) has appointed Margaret Redman as director of national commercial services and senior regional underwriting counsel.
Redman will serve as the single point of contact for national commercial agents and help NATIC continue its exchanges with industry regulators, according to the company. As NATIC prepares to launch its operations in New York, she will make connections with clients and commercial customers for the underwriter’s independent agents.
“As NATIC rebrands its name to Doma and we prepare to go public, Margaret will be an asset to all of our growth plans and bring innovative plans to our underwriting business unit,” NATIC Executive Vice President and Chief Underwriting Counsel Valerie Jahn-Grandin said in a release. “She knows how to look past the status quo and determine how we can make real estate transactions faster and frictionless for our agents, affiliates, and customers — a critical skill in the technology-driven segment of our industry. In addition, Margaret’s experience in the national market, talent in working with regulators and extensive lobbying efforts position her to affect changes for our agents in both their local and national markets.”
Redman began her career practicing commercial real estate law in Atlanta before entering the title insurance industry. She served as vice president, reinsurance counsel and senior corporate counsel at First American Title and senior vice president at Fidelity National Title, according to her LinkedIn profile.
“I am excited to bring my experience in evaluating and resolving complex legal challenges to NATIC and Doma as the company establishes operations in New York,” Redman said. “I’m a passionate leader who believes in the power of teamwork, integrity and accountability, and I look forward to continuing my work as an effective change agent in the title industry.”
Redman has experience in regulatory matters, reinsurance, national commercial transactions, agent education and support, sales, and account management. She earned her undergraduate degree in political science with honors from Rollins College in Winter Park, Fla., and her juris doctorate from Florida State University in Tallahassee.
