We hired a high street lawyer for my conveyancing in Irchester recently. Upon checking the fine print it is apparent thatI am liable for charges even if the movefalls through. Should I ditch them and appoint a web based firm promising no completion no cost conveyancing in Irchester?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Sale No Fee" is advertised then the fee levels will tend to be be higher to offset those conveyances that fail to complete. Also remember that such offerings generally do not protect you from disbursements e.g. Irchester conveyancing search fees.
If you had a top tip for selecting a conveyancing solicitor in Irchester what would it be?
Do not opt for the cheapest Irchester conveyancing costs illustration. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to conveyancing solicitors. A cheap quote may mean that the conveyancing solicitor is handling a lot of jobs at one time and you won’t get the quality of service and the attention that you need. It is, however, wise to use a conveyancer who has a fixed fee on a no sale, no fee basis. This way, you know exactly what you’ll have to pay in ahead of time.
Are all Irchester Conveyancing Quality Solicitors on the Barclays conveyancing panel?
A selection of banks and building societies now use the accreditation scheme as the kick off point for Panel approval such as HSBC and Santander.

Completion of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Irchester. Conveyancing was of an acceptable standard but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How does one go about formally complaining?
Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Team at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are sorted out effectively and efficiently. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.
I am downsizing from our home in Irchester and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being constructed on contaminated land. A local lawyer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the buyers instructed a factory type conveyancing firm as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Irchester. We have lived in Irchester for three years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer currently acting for you. What do they say? You should enquire of 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)
