Michael Campbell joins Title Resources Group as Michigan underwriting counsel

Title Resources Group (TRG) has named Michael Campbell as a vice president and underwriting counsel for Michigan.

In this role, Campbell will support TRG’s title agents and escrow officers across Michigan and the broader Midwest.

“Michael’s diverse title agency and underwriting background in high-volume and boutique shops gives him the broad experience needed to solve title problems our agents encounter,” said Mickey Godat, TRG’s chief underwriting counsel.

“Whether that’s a multi-state, multi-site commercial transaction or the routine closing on a small residential lot, Michael brings creativity born from getting deals done.”

Campbell brings more than 10 years of experience to the position. Most recently, he served as a senior underwriter and consultant at a multistate title insurance agency, where he handled underwriting, escrow and title clearance guidance.

He also created training materials and process improvements aimed at enhancing client service and accuracy.

Prior to that, Campbell worked at real estate technology company Spruce Holdings as senior underwriting counsel, and he spent eight years with Amrock (Rocket Close) that included four years as associate corporate counsel.

“I am excited to join TRG’s strong team of underwriters, assist TRG agents and ultimately help people fulfill their property ownership dreams,” Campbell said in a statement. “Seeing the big picture in a transaction — not just from underwriting — but also from an escrow and compliance perspective is the key to delivering solid underwriting support, and I look forward to providing this to agents under the TRG brand.”

Campbell is a licensed attorney in Michigan and a licensed title producer in Michigan, Indiana and Missouri.

He holds a doctorate degree from the Wayne State University Law School and a bachelor’s degree in business administration and economics from the University of Detroit Mercy.

TRG also recently appointed a new CEO, tapping Kevin Wall after his lengthy stint as co-president of First American Title Insurance Co.
