The Amlwch conveyancing firm that I appointed last week on my purchase in Amlwch have without warning shut down. I only went with them because I had to have a firm on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and my preferred Amlwch lawyer was not. I issued them a cheque for £250 in advance. What are my options?
If you have an estate agent involved then let them know immediately so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors should be in a position to help.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on last month in what should have been a simple, no chain conveyancing. Amlwch is the location of the property. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Amlwch are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Amlwch you must be sure that your lawyer goes through the deeds very carefully. Your bank may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Amlwch may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold property.
My husband and I are a couple of weeks into a freehold purchase having been directed to conveyancers by the high street agent to carry out the conveyancing in Amlwch. I am not happy. Can you you assist me in finding new lawyers?
A lawyer would have to be really poor to suggest changing them. Has the loan offer been sent? If so you will need to advise them of the new contact details and get the loan are re-issued. Your solicitor ideally should be on the mortgage company approved list to avoid escalating costs and complications. That should be your starting point.

What are your top tips when it comes to finding a Amlwch conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
If you are instructing a solicitor for lease extension works (regardless if they are a Amlwch conveyancing practice) it is imperative that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We suggest that you make enquires with several firms including non Amlwch conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. If the firm is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions could be useful:

If the firm is not ALEP accredited then what is the reason? Can they put you in touch with clients in Amlwch who can give a testimonial?

The figure that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to advice on the actual costs without more detailed due diligence.

There may be additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously should be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not take any other action based on this information without first getting professional advice.
