At what point does exchange of contracts take place for purchase conveyancing in Rothley and do I need to be at the lawyers office?
If you are local to one of the conveyancing solicitors in Rothley you are invited in to sign documents. That being said, the lender approved solicitors we work with supply countrywide coverage for conveyancing and give just as detailed and professional a job for you when dealing with you electronically. The executing of the purchase agreement is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line is necessary for the firm to officially exchange when the time is right, which is ordinarily shortly after signing. The exchange process is is usually a five minute process, although where a long "chain" is in the mix, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Rothley)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
What happens if my solicitor is removed from the Coventry BS Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Rothley?
First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
