Case Study: Mother Lode Holding Company achieves paperless, compliant title and escrow processing with Foxit Software's PhantomPDF

Mother Lode Holding Company embraces paperless processing

Mother Lode Holding Company (MLHC) is a national provider of title insurance, escrow services and transaction support whose roots trace back to Placer Title Company in 1973. Facing strict compliance timelines, complex title and escrow workflows and dispersed teams, MLHC set out to go paperless but found their existing PDF tools couldn’t handle markup, page reorganization, image editing or OCR — creating a major bottleneck for efficiency and communication.

MLHC implemented Foxit PhantomPDF, standardizing on its editing, document organization, annotation, OCR and file‑size reduction features, and documented workflows for companywide use. Combined with practical changes like dual monitors and digital stamping, the solution enabled reliable electronic signing, faster interdepartmental handoffs and improved accuracy and compliance — allowing MLHC to complete its paperless transition and substantially boost operational efficiency.
