Conducting Writ Searches in Prolegis

Writ searches are a critical component of due diligence in real estate and legal transactions. Prolegis streamlines this process by integrating directly with Teranet Connect, allowing you to search for executions against buyers, sellers, or other individuals without leaving your matter.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have your Teranet Connect credentials handy. You will need to log in to the Teranet portal through Prolegis to authorize the search and incur the necessary disbursements.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Navigate to the Writs Section

Within your specific matter, use the main navigation menu to access the search area:

  • Click on the Titles tab.

  • Select Writs from the sub-menu.

2. Log into Teranet Connect

If you have not yet authenticated your session for the day:

  • Click the Login to Teranet Connect button.

  • Enter your credentials in the pop-up window provided by Teranet.

  • Once successfully logged in, the search interface will become active.

3. Execute the Search

You can now search for buyers, sellers, or other relevant parties:

  • Select the Individual: Choose the contact from your matter that you wish to search.

  • Verify Details: Ensure the name is spelled correctly as per their legal identification.

  • Run Search: Use the Teranet search tools integrated on the page to pull the Writ Statement.

4. Review Results

Once the search is complete, the results will appear within the Writs tab. You can view clear certificates or details of any filed executions.

Integration with Document Production

One of the primary benefits of searching through Prolegis is that the data is automatically captured for your workflow:

  • Disbursements: Search fees are automatically tracked.

  • Document Generation: Information retrieved from the writ search (such as writ numbers or amounts) is available for use in your Document Production templates, such as Requisition House or Closing Briefs.

Tip: Always ensure you are searching the correct Enforcement Office (EO) jurisdiction relevant to the property location to ensure a valid search result.
