The primary upside of using a local Warwickshire conveyancing firm is that you can attend the office to sign documents, hand in your identification documents and apply pressure on them where appropriate. They will also have local knowledge which is a plus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you.

Back In 2006, I bought a leasehold house in Warwickshire. Conveyancing and Birmingham Midshires mortgage organised. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the freehold. Attached was a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1998. The conveyancing solicitor in Warwickshire who acted for me is not around. What should I do?
First contact HMLR to be sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the registered owner of the freehold reversion. It is not necessary to instruct a Warwickshire conveyancing practitioner to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for less than a fiver. Rest assured that in any event, even if this is the rightful freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.

HM Land Registry are legally required to note price paid data on a register of the title for domestic properties countrywide which includes homes in Warwickshire. The register of title is an open document, so HMLR would be breaking the law if they did not allow access to the register.
You can ask HMLR to withhold the price paid entry but the answer would be in the negative.
