The mortgage broker has suggested using their conveyancing practitioner for my conveyancing in Coombe Warren - Is it not simpler advisable to just use them?
It is not always the case and you are entitled to opt for whichever lawyer you decide for your Coombe Warren conveyancing. The solicitor suggested by a 3rd party adviser may not always be the best conveyancer, they may suggest their preferred conveyancing firm who are based far away. In this instance you may not have contact with your conveyancing practitioner and due to the lack of continuity in the transaction, it may be difficult to obtain updates.
