Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Gresford

Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Gresford. Is there a reason why all Gresford solicitors aren't included on all lender panels?

Mortgage Companies ordinarily restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing practices on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a organisation is required to have two or more partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some building societies decided to reduce the number of practices they allow to represent them. It is worth noting that lenders have no liability for the standard of service supplied by any Gresford property lawyer on their panel. Increases in mortgage fraud was the primary trigger for the reduction of solicitor panels from 2008 notwithstanding that there are opposing views concerning whether solicitors sat at the center of that fraud. Statistics via the Land Registry reveal that thousands of conveyancing practices only transact a couple of conveyances annually. Those supporting conveyancing panel culls question why conveyancing firms should have claim to remain on a conveyancing panel when clearly conveyancing is not their primary expertise?

Please explain the implications if my solicitor is suspended from the UBS Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Gresford?

The first thing to point out is that, 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 for a fee.

We are intent on selling our property in Gresford and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A high street Gresford conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers are using a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Gresford. Having lived in Gresford for many years we know of no issue. Do we contact our local Authority to obtain clarification that there is no issue.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. What do they say? You need to check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same illness)
