As someone unfamiliar with the Killamarsh conveyancing process what’s your top tip you can impart concerning the house moving process in Killamarsh
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Killamarsh or throughout England and Wales is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of room for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the ownership transfer. For example, the vendor, property agent and even potentially the lender. Choosing a lawyer for your conveyancing in Killamarsh is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY person in the legal process whose responsibility is to act in your best interests and to protect you.
Sometimes a third party with a vested interest may try and persuade you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the estate agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your conveyancer is wrong. Or your financial adviser may advise you to do something that is against your solicitors advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.
