As a first time buyer what is the most important piece of guidance you can impart concerning purchase conveyancing in Runcorn?

Not many law firms or advisers will tell you this but conveyancing in Runcorn and elsewhere in Cheshire is an adversarial process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is plenty of room for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the vendor, selling agent and even potentially a bank. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Runcorn is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE person in the legal process whose role it is to look after your best interests and to keep you safe.

On occasion a third party with a vested interest may try and convince you that you should follow their advice. For instance, the selling agent may claim to be helping by claiming that your conveyancer is dragging his heels. Or your mortgage broker may try to convince you to do take action that is against your conveyancers advice. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.
