SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--First American Mortgage Solutions, LLC, a part of the First American family of companies, today announced completion of a strategic integration with Clarifire, a workflow automation provider that automates orders of First American Mortgage Solution’s FirstMod^® loss mitigation products and services suite for CLARIFIRE^® technology users.
