Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Sydenham Hill and elsewhere in England and Wales is often a confrontational experience. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there exists an abundance of opportunity for conflict between you and other parties involved in the home moving process. For instance, the seller, property agent and even potentially your bank.

We are witnessing a definite ongoing adversarial element to conveyancing- someone must be at fault for the process taking so long. We recommend that you your first instinct should be to trust your conveyancer above the other parties when it comes to the legal assignment of property.
