In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Hartford? Why is this being asked of me?

You are right in the requirement set out by your lawyer has nothing to do with conveyancing in Hartford. However these days you can not proceed with any conveyancing deal without first supplying evidence of your identity. This usually takes the form of a either your passport or driving licence and a bank statement. Remember if you are supplying your driving licence as evidence of identification it must be both the paper section and photo card part, one is not satisfactory in the absence of the other.

Proof of the origin of monies is necessary under Money Laundering Regulations. Don’t be offended when you are asked to produce this as your lawyer will need to retain this information on record.

My property lawyer in Hartford is not listed on the Alliance & Leicester Approved Panel. Is it possible for me to retain my prefered solicitor even though they are not on the Alliance & Leicester panel?

  2. Find a new lawyer to act in the conveyancing, not forgetting to check they are on the Alliance & Leicester panel

Searches are unlikely to feature in any slowing down conveyancing in Hartford.

Been searching for a conveyancing practitioner for leasehold sale conveyancing in Hartford. I'm selling, uncomplicated no mortgage to discharge, no hurry, currently empty. Received a quote from a solicitor for £800 excluding VAT which is a tad high considering its so straightforward. Can I pay less for conveyancing in Hartford?

Given that it’s a sale only, £500 + VAT would be about the lowest for a Hartford solicitor firm.
