Recently contacted my conveyancing solicitor in Calcot who acted for me 18 months ago and wanted a conveyancing costs illustration based on an identical type of house move (a leasehold property and a freehold premises) of similar values with a mortgage from Godiva Mortgages Ltd. It looks as though am now being charged twice the amount. Am I right to be tempted to shop around for an alternative property lawyer?
The costs illustration is slightly on the high side. If you you were to look around you could get the conveyancing a bit cheaper by say £125. That being said, providing that you were satisfied with the conveyancing the firm provided you couldcome to regret opting for an a cheaper conveyancer. Don't forget to be sure that the firm can represent Godiva Mortgages Ltd. Do make use of our search tool to locate a Calcot conveyancing firm on the Godiva Mortgages Ltd member panel, which can often include conveyancing solicitors in Calcot.

What matters is that you adequately understand what information the searches could supply. You may then make a decision if you consider that you need that information. Should you be uncertain, ask your solicitor to explain.

Please explain the implications if my lawyer’s firm is expelled from the Lloyds Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Calcot?
First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
Do online conveyancing organisations cover everything a high street Calcot solicitor does or do I still need to use a solicitor for the final stages for my conveyancing in Calcot?
Where you choose an online conveyancer they will cover all the things your Calcot conveyancer would cover.
