We are planning to acquire a property and require a conveyancing solicitor in New Malden who is on the UBS approved panel. Could you point me in the right direction as regards a firm?

Our service is limited to being a directory service for firms who wish to be listed as being on the approved conveyancing panel for UBS . We don't recommend any particular firms conducting conveyancing in New Malden.

The New Malden conveyancing solicitors that I appointed last week on my purchase in New Malden have suddenly shut down. They were on acting for me because I had to have a firm on the RBS conveyancing panel and my previous New Malden lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What are my options?

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 the problems encountered. 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 RBS 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.

How does conveyancing in New Malden differ for new build properties?

Most buyers of new build residence in New Malden come to us having been asked by the seller to sign contracts and commit to the purchase even before the residence is constructed. This is because developers in New Malden typically buy the real estate, plan the estate and want to get the plots sold off as they are building the properties. Buyers, therefore, will have to exchange contracts without actually seeing the house they are buying. To reduce the chances of losing the property, buyers should instruct property lawyers as soon as the property is reserved and mortgage applications should be submitted quickly. Due to the fact that it could be several months and even years between exchange of contracts and completion, the mortgage offer may need to be extended. It would be wise to use a lawyer who specialises in new build conveyancing especially if they are accustomed to new build conveyancing in New Malden or who has acted in the same development.

My husband and I are FTB’s - had an offer accepted, but the property agent has warned us that the owners will only move forward if we use the agent's preferred lawyers as they are insisting on a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family solicitor with experience of conveyancing in New Malden

It is highly unlikely the owners are driving this. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a genuine purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)but you intend to instruct your own,trusted New Malden conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing targets set by HQ.
