Me and my partner are soon to complete on the purchase of a property in Ferring and Goring but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree reparation from the seller of six thousand pounds taking the form of a reduction in the price. This was going to be addressed as part of a side agreement however Co-operative will not permit this. Why were they informed?
Your lawyer being on a Co-operative approved list is required to advise Co-operative of any amendments to the purchase price. If you prohibit your conveyancer to report the price change to Co-operative then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Co-operative and you would have to appoint a new lawyer for your conveyancing in Ferring and Goring.

The Ferring and Goring conveyancing firm that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Ferring and Goring have without warning shut down. I chose them because I had to have a lawyer on the Coventry BS conveyancing panel and my family Ferring and Goring lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What should be my next steps?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then let them know immediately so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will 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 Coventry BS 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.
