However, the law practices we recommend supply a nationwide conveyancing service and give as equally comprehensive and professional a job for you when dealing with you by post or email. The signing of the contract is not when everything is set in stone. Signing on the dotted line simply enables the solicitor to address the formalities at the appropriate time, which will usually be very shortly after signing. The exchange process is nowadays normally dealt with by telephone and can be very rapid, although where an extended "chain" is in play, since the process requires the relevant party's solicitor (not necessarily a conveyancing solicitor in Old Colwyn)to be in the office at the appropriate time.
