As with many service providers, often suggestions from relatives can be worth their weight in gold. Yet there are lots of parties with a keen interest in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks might all put forward lawyers to appoint. Sometimes the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but occasionally there is an underlying financial incentive behind the recommendation. You are at liberty to appoint your preferred lawyer. However, bear in mind that some mortgage providers specify a panel list of law firms you are obliged to use for the mortgage related work in your transaction.
