When appointing a solicitor for your lease extension (regardless if they are a Sneinton conveyancing firm) it is imperative that they be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work.

Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions might be useful:

    If the firm is not ALEP accredited then why not?

I inherited a 1st floor flat in Sneinton, conveyancing formalities finalised 10 years ago. Can you shed any light on how much the price could be for a 90 year extension to my lease? Corresponding flats in Sneinton with an extended lease are worth £197,000. The average or mid-range amount of ground rent is £55 yearly. The lease comes to an end on 21st October 2082

With only 56 years remaining on your lease we estimate the price of your lease extension to range between £29,500 and £34,000 as well as plus your own and the landlord's "reasonable" professional fees.

The suggested premium range that we have given is a general guide to costs for extending a lease, but we are not able to supply a more accurate figure without more detailed investigations. Do not use the figures in tribunal or court proceedings. There are no doubt additional issues that need to be taken into account and you obviously want to be as accurate as possible in your negotiations. You should not move forward based on this information without first seeking the advice of a professional.
