We opted for a England Springs based solicitor for my conveyancing in England Springs last week. Upon checking the Ts and Cs it is apparent thatI am responsible for costs even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I go with them or instruct a web based solicitor practice advertising no-sale-no-fee conveyancing in England Springs?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will generally be more expensive to counteract the conveyances that do not go ahead. Also remember that these arrangements tend not to cover expenditure such as England Springs conveyancing search charges.
What happens if my solicitor is expelled from the Nationwide Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in England Springs?
First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.
