TDI announces indictment against title agency employee

Español

On February 13, 2025, a Bexar County grand jury returned indictments against Elaine L. Hebert of Leander, charging her with 19 counts of Forgery of a Financial Instrument, a state jail felony.

Hebert took advantage of her position at Capital Title of Texas to steal money by forging checks that she made payable to her late father. As the executor of her father's estate, Hebert was able to deposit the checks into the estate's bank account and gain access to the funds totaling more than $27,000.

If convicted Hebert faces up to two years in jail, a fine of up to $10,000, and court-ordered restitution.

You can report suspected insurance fraud online or by calling TDI’s Help Line at 800-252-3439.

An indictment is a formal accusation of criminal conduct, not evidence. A defendant is presumed innocent unless convicted through due process of law.
