From 1988 - 2003, Ed Rybczynski was the owner and president of a Baltimore based title agency named Liberty Title. Liberty derived its business competitively by marketing superior services directly to realtors, loan officers, and past customers.
In November of 2003, Ed plead guilty to federal conspiracy charges (postal fraud) stemming from property flipping and mortgage fraud. Ed was an inmate at the Lewisburg Federal Prison Camp located in central Pennsylvania. The Lewisburg Camp is often perceived as a “country club” of sorts intended to comfortably house white collar criminals and other non-violent prisoners. In fact, the camp is adjacent to a notoriously dangerous penitentiary and is often used as a transitional facility for “hardened” criminals including drug dealers and gang members. While incarcerated, Ed successfully developed a general studies curriculum for learning disabled inmates who were studying for a GED in a multi-cultural environment. Before being released, Ed was asked by prison officials to head the camps career development program.
Ed is a highly regarded public speaker who travels nationally to give presentions to groups of title agents, corporate executives, mortgage brokers, elected officials and other concerned groups. Ed candidly shares the details of events leading to his conviction and the horrors of prison life to audiences who leave the presentations stunned upon realizing their degree of professional vulnerability. More importantly, Ed offers insights learned from his unusual career experiences and provides compelling reasons for developing internal policies that embrace the concepts of responsible corporate citizenship, “principled” decision making, and personal accountability.
Ed’s current project is the positioning of Rybczynski Consulting as the nations leading authority in the areas or professional development, best practices, and fraud mitigation for the title industry. Rybczynski Consulting is guided by a firm belief that the brand, reputation, and financial performance of every title company can be enhanced by the implementation of pro-active strategies designed to reduce the risk of losses due to class action lawsuits, criminal investigations, and title claims.
