I selected a local lawyer for our conveyancing in Falconwood today. Reviewing the Terms I seewe are liable for costs even if our purchase doesn't happen. Would I be best advised to choose an on-line conveyancing company advertising no move no charge conveyancing in Falconwood?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to offset those cases that do not go ahead. Please beware that these deals rarely protect you from expenditure for instance Falconwood conveyancing search fees.

Exclusivity contracts are contracts binding a home owner and purchaser granting the buyer exclusive rights to the sale of the property for a limited period of time. For all intents and purposes, an exclusivity agreement is a contract specifying that you will be issued with a contract at a later date being the main conveyancing contract. It tends to be utilised for buyer protection though in some cases, the seller may enjoy an upside from such agreements as well. There are various positives and negatives to using them but you should to check with your conveyancer but note that it may end up costing you extra in conveyancing charges.

The Falconwood conveyancing solicitors that I appointed last week on my purchase in Falconwood have suddenly closed. I chose them because I had to have a solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel and my preferred Falconwood lawyer was not. I issued them a cheque for £250 in advance. What should be my next steps?
If you have an estate agent involved then let them know straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Nottingham 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 assist.
