Is it necessary during the course of the conveyancing process to have a meeting at the offices of the solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Goodwick so that I can attend their offices when needed.
Whereas this was necessary 12 years ago, most banks no longer oblige their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the mortgagors signature.

Me and my partner are purchasing a property in Goodwick. It might be a silly question but how we can trust a lawyer? At some point we have to send funds into their account. What protection do we have from them run away with our money?

We are getting a further advance on our home loan from as we want to conduct a loft conversion to our property in Goodwick. Are we obliged to choose a local Goodwick solicitor on the conveyancing panel to handle the legals?

We were going to get a DIP from this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do recommend any Goodwick solicitors on the conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Goodwick solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and through the process.

It has been 4 months since my purchase conveyancing in Goodwick concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £200,000 when infact I paid £180,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the asset from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.
As co-executor for the will of my father I am disposing of a residence in Monmouth but reside in Goodwick. My solicitor (based 300 miles from mehas requested that I execute a statutory declaration prior to completion. Can you recommend a conveyancing lawyer in Goodwick who can witness this legal document for me?
strictly speaking you are unlikely to need to have the documents witnessed by a conveyancing solicitor. Ordinarily or notary public or solicitor will be fine regardless of whether they are Goodwick based
