Join us at the 2010 OBA Institute in Toronto
LawyerDoneDeal continues to be a proud supporter of the Ontario Bar Association with our keynote sponsorship at this year's institute. All events are scheduled for February 16th at the Fairmont Royal York in Toronto. The day begins at 8:00 with a complimentary breakfast followed by the Keynote Address from Dr. Samantha Nutt, founder of War Child Canada.
Of particular interest is the Real Property- Closing the Deal program sponsored by TitlePLUS®. This powerful program will give you the tools to advise your clients at the most vulnerable time of the real estate transaction - just before closing. Do you have a "Tender Kit"? Do you have a "decision tree" to help you figure out whether it's better to close and sue or not to close at all? Are you up-to-date with changes in timing rules? What about remedies that can allow you to safely lead your client through a stressful closing situation?

The LDD Real Estate Subscription Agreement has been updated for 2009 to the LDD Web Services Subscription Agreement which includes provisions for all of the following integrated products: RealtiWebTM, WillPowerWeb®, CorporateTrackerTM, LDD WebDocumentRetrieval®, LDD WebDocumentServicesTM, and RealtiBuilderSalesTM.
The first time the first user on your account logs into any of these LDD systems next Monday morning, January 12, (or with LDD WebDocumentRetrieval the first time the mortgage document is prepared, funds are requested, or the mortgage reported) the revised Web Services Agreement will be displayed. They simply need to scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click "I agree" to continue with the use of the system. Note that the license will not be displayed again after it is initially agreed to, on any other LDD product or when any other user on your account logs in.
Note also that you will remain registered for all of your existing LDD applications. If you would like to be registered for any additional LDD programs, please call 416 367-0600 or 800 363-2253 and dial 0 to speak to a LawyerDoneDeal support team representative.

Look for LDD’s product name changes on our new website
Change is good. After talking with our customers, staff and consulting with experts, we’re changing product names and our website. Please note these changes:
Viewnet is now called CorporateTracker™. The name is now consistent with what this product actually does for our corporate clients. You will notice the user interface has similarly changed.
RealtiPLUSWeb and RealtiOnlineWeb are now RealtiWeb. This popular product is being rolled out across Canada. Hence, to have a name with universal application, the new names are:
RealtiWeb - Ontario: Instead of RealtiPLUSWeb
RealtiWeb - Alberta: Instead of RealtiOnlineWeb
Coming Soon!: RealtiWeb - Nova Scotia and RealtiWeb - Saskatchewan

Our clients say: "We Wish All Documents Were Delivered Via the Web"
Lenders across Canada use our LDD WebDocumentRetrieval® system to send mortgage instructions to lawyers via the web. In Ontario, lawyers acting for subdivision and condominium builders can use it to send closing documents to purchasers’ lawyers. And, best of all, there is no cost for retrieving the documents. It’s so simple and convenient; many of our clients say "we wish all documents were delivered via the web."
You can access these documents using an assigned account number that, in Ontario, is the lawyers’ Law Society of Upper Canada ID number. Ontario lawyers can use the same password they use to file their E&OE insurance. Lawyers outside of Ontario are assigned IDs and passwords by LAWPRO®. After you register, you benefit from a complete transaction that is online, highly automated and easy to access.
