Anne is an amazing leader and partner! I have worked with Anne for several years now in her capacity as a branch manager, escrow manager and now president of Lawyers Title. She has grown within the company because of her leadership capabilities, knowledge of the industry, customer service, and genuine caring for others. I know I can always count on Anne to help me and guide me through any situation and she is truly a pleasure for me to work with.

Anne is truly one of the most well-balanced, proactive and responsive leaders within our organization. Anne is extremely responsive to the both our external clients and our internal teams and has a “can do” attitude that she approaches with candor and respect at all times. I have enjoyed getting to know Anne and enjoy her wit, enthusiasm and the levity she brings to every room she enters. We are honored to have her leading one of our fastest growing brands within the FNF family. Lawyers Title will continue to soar under her leadership and the leadership of her incredibly dynamic and strong management team.

A true leader that embodies decentralization - trust in her team. Anne is humble but not passive; quiet but not silent. She's attentive to details but not obsessed with them. I'm torn with what I like working for her best - her calm demeanor, decisiveness or quick wit....it's got to be the wit. I truly enjoy our mission together.

I am exceedingly grateful to have met Anne! She introduced me to the exceptional team at Lawyers Title that I am honored to now be a part of. As a leader Anne has made me incredibly comfortable in my transition to escrow. She exudes a confidence that is backed up by her knowledge and her exceptional skills in dealing with people. While her background is impressive on paper, it is her ability to apply that background to real-life situations in away that puts people at ease that makes her so outstanding. When Anne is around she creates a professional yet relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere to work in. She has an impressive ability to balance business with an appreciation for the joy in every day. Without a doubt, Anne always has a smile on her face. Because of her, I have a lot to be thankful for. Anyone would be lucky to learn from and wise to take notes from this outstanding woman.

It is rare to come across a standout person, who follows thru in what they say. When Anne came to me with an opportunity, she gave me the time needed to make the proper decision for me and my family without being pressuring. She made herself available to ask any and all questions that I may have, even going as far as to make sure I was ok after giving my notice. I am happy to have joined Anne and becoming a part of her team. She was honest and fair in her negotiations, any employee would be lucky to have Anne as a manager.

If you want to be the best, you've got to surround yourself with the best. That's exactly why Anne Merrell will always have my business. When it comes to all things escrow, she's perfection. In real estate, sometimes transactions go south, things fall apart and I'm left scrambling to pick up the pieces. Knowing I have someone like Anne on my side to put those pieces back together helps me sleep a little easier at night. She's efficient, reliable and overall pretty freakin exceptional. Anne's simply good people and I'll keep using her as long as she puts up with me!

Working with Anne means that the entire closing process is 100% stress free from the title & escrow perspective. She is one of very few that really takes the time to get to know her clients and goes above and beyond to cater to their specific needs. She is an OUTSTANDING escrow officer and I would highly recommend her!
