I am due to move house in October. Does my conveyancing solicitor liaise with the removal company on the completion day. As an aside, can you suggest a removal company in Kearsley. Conveyancing lawyer was organised prior to coming across this site.
On the afternoon of completion you can pick up the keys from your property agent but this should only occur once the previous owners conveyancers inform the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be released. After that you can tell the removal men that they can start moving you in. As a matter of policy we do not suggest a particular removal company but can help you choose a residential property solicitor in Kearsley or a lawyer with expertise in conveyancing in Kearsley.

The formalities of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Kearsley. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I would like to complain about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?
Most banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Services Department at head office. We understand that complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. 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.

It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You need to 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 health insurance to cover that same ailment)
