As with many professional services, often referrals from family and friends can be very helpful. But there are many players in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies might all recommend lawyers to retain. On occasion the solicitors might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but sometimes there is an underlying financial incentive behind the recommendation.

I own a leasehold house in Flint Mountain. Conveyancing and Chelsea Building Society mortgage are in place. A letter has just been received from someone claiming to own the freehold. It included a ground rent demand for rent dating back to 1994. The conveyancing practitioner in Flint Mountain who previously acted has long since retired. Do I pay?

The first thing you should do is make enquiries of HMLR to make sure that the individual purporting to own the freehold is indeed the new freeholder. You do not need to instruct a Flint Mountain conveyancing practitioner to do this as it can be done on-line for a few pound. Rest assured that regardless, even if this is the legitimate freeholder, under the Limitation Act 1980 no more than 6 years of rent can be collected.
