Debra DeLana Patti, Esq. — Settlement Attorney, Alltech National Title Pittsburgh

About Debra Patti, Esq.

Debra DeLana Patti, Esq. is a Partner and Settlement Attorney at Alltech National Title’s Pittsburgh office. She earned her J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law in 1977, has been licensed in Pennsylvania since that year, and spent the first decade of her career at MacMullan & Associates before founding Settlements, Ltd. in 1987.

She led Settlements, Ltd. for 35 years before merging the firm into Alltech National Title in 2023, where she now leads the Pittsburgh settlement practice. Nearly five decades of Pennsylvania real estate practice — and the same Pittsburgh team her clients have trusted for decades.

Pamela Tracy, a Pittsburgh real estate professional who has worked with Debra since 2017, calls her “the ultimate professional” who “has built and leads a team of like-minded individuals who share her high standards.”

Debra has practiced settlement work in Pittsburgh for over 35 years. She built Settlements, Ltd. from the ground up in 1987 and ran it as an independent practice until 2023, when she merged the firm into Alltech National Title — combining Alltech’s AI-native operations and Inc. 5000 infrastructure with the relationships, judgment, and Pittsburgh-specific expertise her team had built over three and a half decades.

That combination is what the Pittsburgh office offers agents, lenders, and attorneys today: a settlement practice with deep local roots and 35+ years of Allegheny County file experience, running on a national operations platform built to scale. The same dedicated team clients knew at Settlements, Ltd. — now with the technology and reach to match the way real estate moves today.
