County recorders will join Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller to announce a series of lawsuits being filed against companies using misleading mailers to offer copies of property deeds for fees as high as $89.
County recorder offices across the state and the Attorney General’s office have received complaints from consumers who believe the government-like notices are legitimate invoices. Property deeds – which are usually one to two pages – are public records and county recorders can provide copies for free or at a nominal cost, often times a $1 per page.
