As someone unfamiliar with conveyancing in Fenton what’s your top tip you can give me concerning the ownership transfer in Fenton
Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Fenton and elsewhere in England and Wales is an adversarial process. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of opportunity for conflict between you and other parties involved in the home moving process. For instance, the vendor, selling agent and on occasion a mortgage company. Choosing a law firm for your conveyancing in Fenton should not be taken lightly as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the SOLE person in the legal process whose interest is to protect your best interests and to protect you.
We are witnessing a worrying ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone has to be at fault for the process being so protracted. You your first instinct should be to trust your lawyer above all other players in the home moving process.

My husband and I are new to the buying process - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent has warned us that the vendor will only proceed if we appoint their chosen solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. We would rather use a local solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Fenton
It is highly unlikely the vendors are behind this. Should the vendor desire ‘a quick sale', alienating a motivated purchaser is counter productive. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and make the point that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you are going to appoint your preferred Fenton conveyancing firm - not the ones that will earn their estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing figures demanded by head office.
Are the Fenton conveyancing lawyers identified as being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel, together with their details provided by the lender?
Fenton firms and firms conducting conveyancing in Fenton themselves provide us confirmation that they are on the bank conveyancing panel as opposed to being supplied with a list from the mortgage company directly.
