My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Papworth Everard. I need to find out if they are on the Skipton Building Society approved list of lawyers. Can you help?
You should call the conveyancer and ask them whether they are on the lender panel. Alternatively you should call Skipton Building Society who may be able to confirm.
My wife and I are downsizing from our property in Papworth Everard and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a possibility that the property was constructed land that was not decontaminated. A high street Papworth Everard conveyancer would know this is not the case. It does beg the question why the purchasers instructed a national conveyancing practice rather than a conveyancing solicitor in Papworth Everard. Having lived in Papworth Everard for three years we know that this is a non issue. Is it a good idea to get in touch with our local Authority to seek confirmation that there is no issue.
It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing lawyer already. Are they able to advise? You should check with 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 sickness)
