You have the legal right in the State of Rhode Island to select your own title attorney. Your bank cannot dictate who you use/select as your title counsel. In most cases, your bank will use the attorney that you select as your title attorney as the closing attorney as well. Even in situations where your bank will use their own attorney as the closing attorney you are well advised to select and utilize your own selected title attorney who represents you with regards to the title search and examination and represents you at the closing.
