Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Cannock

I am soon to exchange buying a property in Cannock but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have was able negotiate compensation from the vendor of £3k in the form of a reduction in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process however Clydesdale will not agree to this. Should they have been notified?

Your conveyancing practitioner that is on the Clydesdale approved list is duty bound to inform Clydesdale of any changes to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancer to disclose the reduction to Clydesdale then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Clydesdale and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Cannock.

The 1954 Act affords a safeguard to commercial tenants, giving them the dueness to make a request to court for a new tenancy and continue in occupation when the lease comes to an end. There are certain specified grounds where a landlord can refrain from granting a lease renewal and the rules are complex. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing. Cannock is one of the numerous locations in which the firms we work with have offices

Not every individual in the law firm must be listed by the regulator. As long there is someone qualified to 'oversee' the work, the actual day-to-day activity can be undertaken by unlicensed staff.
