I selected a high street solicitor for my conveyancing in Lakenheath last week. After carefully reading the small print I noteI am responsible for costs even if the dealdoes not happen. Should I go with them or select an internet lawyer advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Lakenheath?

It is usually ‘give and take’ in that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to counteract the transactions that fail to complete.

The Lakenheath conveyancing lawyers that I appointed last week on my house acquisition in Lakenheath have suddenly closed. I chose them because I needed a lawyer on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and my preferred Lakenheath lawyer was not. I sent them a cheque for £250 in advance. What should be my next steps?

If you have an estate agent involved then inform them straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the Virgin Money conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors may be able to help.

We had chosen conveyancing lawyers based in Lakenheath on the Barclays solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a supplemental fee for the legal aspects of the Barclays mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee set by Barclays?

We have agreed to purchase a house in Lakenheath. A rare aspect is that the roof has a solar panel. Solicitors conducting should look into this right? Will my lender Principality be concerned?

As your lender is Principality your lawyer must check the conveyancing requirements contained in Section 2 of UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook for Principality. The CML Handbook includes minimum conditions for solar panel roof-space leases, and conveyancers are required to report to Principality where a lease does not comply with these conditions. The conditions relate to the installation of panels on properties countrywide and is not limited to Lakenheath.
