I went with a Hurst Green based solicitor for our conveyancing in Hurst Green last week. Reviewing the Terms and Conditions I seewe are responsible for fees even if the dealdoes not go ahead. Would I be best advised to choose an on-line solicitor practice promising no completion no cost conveyancing in Hurst Green?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will generally be higher to cover the cases that abort. Also remember that these promotions rarely protect you from outlay for example Hurst Green conveyancing search expenses.
I am downsizing from our home in Hurst Green and the buyers lawyers are claiming that there is a risk of it being built on contaminated land. Any high street Hurst Green lawyer would know that there is no such problem. For the life of me I don't know why the purchasers are using an online conveyancing outfit as opposed to a conveyancing solicitor in Hurst Green. Having lived in Hurst Green for many years we know of no issue. Should we get in touch with our local Authority to get confirmation need.
It would appear that you have a conveyancing lawyer already. What do they say? You must enquire of your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out life insurance to cover that same sickness)

In my capacity as executor for the will of my father I am selling a house in Swansea but reside in Hurst Green. My conveyancer (based 250 miles from merequires that I execute a stat dec prior to completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing solicitor in Hurst Green to attest this legal document for me?
strictly speaking you are not likely to be required to have the documents attested by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or solicitor will suffice regardless of whether they are located in Hurst Green
My partner and I are purchasing a garden flat in Hurst Green. When we first instructed solicitor, they said that they were on all mainstream bank panels. The financial adviser called today to advise that they don't seem to be on the Lloyds approved list. If it turns out to be true, what should we do? Do we just find a different solicitor that is on their panel or should we pay for separate representation, with Lloyds selecting their own approved solicitor.
Where you are purchasing a property requiring a mortgage it is conventional for the buyer’s solicitors to also represent the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a solicitor has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the property lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the conveyancing practitioner has to meet. Some banks now insist their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your property lawyer should call Lloyds to discover if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You don't have to instruct a firm on Lloyds's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Hurst Green solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.
