WFG National Title Insurance Company has appointed Kimberly O’Connor as Vice President/Michigan State Counsel and Underwriter. She joins WFG’s current Michigan Underwriter, Allan Dick, to support the company’s rapidly-growing base of title agents in the market.
 
O’Connor brings 21 years of industry experience with her to WFG. She most recently served with one of the nation’s largest title underwriters as state counsel and underwriter. Over the course of her career with that company, she also managed claims with the legal department after starting in 1996 as a Residential and Commercial Examiner. She is a member of the Michigan Land Title Association, and currently serves on the Board of Directors. She also sits on several committees, including the Legislative Committee, where she was an intricate part of passing several laws affecting the title insurance industry in Michigan.
 
“Kim is incredibly passionate about agent education,” said Carl Bauchle, Vice President of WFG. “She understands that our agents are increasingly looking to their underwriter to keep them up to date in a constantly changing environment, and goes to great lengths to make training and information available to our agents on their terms. She truly embodies the WFG approach to serving as a resource for its partners and clients.”
