FAQ
Our building society/estate agent has strongly recommended we use a local solicitor. Is this required?
This is usually the case, as they prefer you to use their own chosen solicitor in order to reciprocate local business. Indeed, many of the larger agents have now also formed joint partnerships with solicitors.
The questions here are:
- Will you, the client, be getting impartial legal advice on your transaction?
- Will it cost you extra money for the same conveyancing to be done?
Our solicitors are approved by most of the major banks and building societies (and are on their panel) meaning they can act for both you, and the lender, for No Extra Cost.
Remember, you are totally free to choose your own solicitor. At the end of the day it is your choice, and you are paying the bill!
I have been told that a local solicitor would do a better (quicker) job, and I can visit if necessary.
All solicitors have to carry out exactly the same local enquiries and searches as any local solicitor would - there is NO difference.
Our solicitors use fax, e-mail and overnight document exchange to ensure there are no delays.
Most clients make one visit at most, to see their solicitor, in order to sign contracts (and even this is not necessary). In today's modern world, most conveyancing is already conducted by fax, email, telephone and post for convenience. We find that most clients want the legal work undertaken efficiently, promptly and at a reasonable cost. This is exactly what we offer.
