On February 25, 2025, David S. Klein, a partner at Rountree Leitman Klein & Geer, LLC in Atlanta, Georgia, delivered an insightful presentation at the State Bar of Georgia Real Property Law Section's Title Standards Seminar. Klein, a seasoned attorney with extensive experience in real property law, spoke on the topic of "Forms of Title Litigation." His presentation was a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) event designed for attorneys who are members of the State Bar of Georgia.

During his informative session, Klein provided an in-depth exploration of various forms of title litigation, a subject of critical importance to legal practitioners specializing in real property law. The presentation delved into several key areas, including quiet title actions, declaratory judgments, reformation actions, and fraudulent transfer actions. Each of these topics was examined with the goal of enhancing the understanding and proficiency of attorneys handling complex title disputes.

Klein explained the nuances of quiet title actions, emphasizing their importance in resolving disputes over the ownership of property and clearing potential defects in a title. He also detailed declaratory judgments, which serve as a judicial determination of the parties' rights under a contract or statute, often utilized in title disputes to clarify property ownership.

Additionally, Klein highlighted reformation actions, which involve the correction or modification of a written instrument to reflect the true intentions of the parties involved. He concluded with a discussion on fraudulent transfer actions, which are initiated to prevent the transfer of assets to evade creditors, a pertinent issue in title litigation.
