I hired a local lawyer for my conveyancing in Dorking recently. After carefully reading the Terms I noteI am responsible for charges even where the transaction does not complete. Should I go with them or instruct a web based solicitor practice offering no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in Dorking?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will generally be uplifted to neutralise those conveyances that fail to complete. You should be mindful that such promotions rarely protect you from outlay for instance Dorking conveyancing search costs.
The Dorking conveyancing firm handling our Dorking conveyancing has uncovered an inconsistency between the surveyor’s assumptions in the home valuation report and what is revealed within the conveyancing documents. My lawyer says that he is obliged to ensure that the bank is happy with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my lawyer’s approach legitimate?
Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook requirements which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
