Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then inform them immediately so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Most sellers would 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 Clydesdale 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.

I am buying a ground floor apartment in Padstow. Conveyancing solicitor has been awaiting, from the owner, building insurance paperwork.

It is not unheard of in leasehold conveyancing in Padstow to find Conveyancing in Padstow in a minority of cases reveals that the lease obliges the leasehold owners to insure their individual flats as opposed to the landlord insuring the entire property - which is definitely better. Do contact your property lawyer but it would appear that your property lawyer is attempting to establish that the whole building is insured. Insuring your apartment is no help when it comes to rebuilding after a fire if the 1st floor cannot be reinstated due to lack of insurance.
