In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Ryde? Is this really necessary?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering rules require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to check the ID of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing instruction. The Terms of Engagement that you are required to sign should stipulate this. Your lawyer also has obligations to obtain certain documents in accordance with the CML Lenders Handbook requirements last updated on 1st December 2014. Should you are unwilling to supply ID verification documents, your conveyancer can not take you on as a client.
The Ryde conveyancing firm that I recently instructed on my purchase in Ryde have without warning shut down. They were on acting for me because I needed a solicitor on the Nottingham conveyancing panel and my preferred Ryde lawyer was not. I gave my credit card details for them to take £195 for searches. What should be my next steps?
Assuming that you have an Estate Agent in the equation then let them know straight away so that they advise the vendors 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 will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Nottingham 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 lawyers should be in a position to help.

As far as conveyancing in Ryde is concerned, registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timescales can vary depending on who lodges the application, whether it is in order and whether the Land registry must send notices to any third persons or bodies. At present roughly three quarters of submission are fully addressed in less than three weeks but some can be subject to longer delays. Registration is effected once the purchaser is living at the premises thus an expedited registration is not usually an essential issue but where it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
