Deed is not being recorded due to clerical error-Lake County, IN

Hello BP community. My title company misspelled the name of the seller on the deed which is causing it to be held up with the recorder's office. Not using real names, but as an example, the name of the seller is in the form of "XJZ Property Trust". The title company mistakenly entered the seller as "XLZ Property Trust", the difference really is one letter that should read J but instead reads L. I have been trying to get the title company to correct this and just keep getting the run-around from them with the same responses (if they even respond to me at all)..."we're sending someone tomorrow", etc, etc.  I called the recorder's office and they tell me only the title company can fix this. It's been almost 3 years, and I cannot find any information for this situation. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Do I need to get an attorney involved? The property is located in Lake County, Indiana.  Any help would be much appreciated.
