As a FTB what is the most important advice you can give me about purchase conveyancing in Highbury?
Not many law firms shout this from the rooftops but conveyancing in Highbury or throughout England and Wales is often a confrontational process. In other words, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of opportunity for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. For instance, the seller, estate agent and sometimes your mortgage company. Appointing a solicitor for your conveyancing in Highbury is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONE party in the transaction whose interest is to look after your legal interests and to protect you.
On occasion a third party with a vested interest will attempt to sway you that it is in your interests to do things their way. For instance, the selling agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your conveyancer is dragging his heels. Or your mortgage broker may advise you to do take action that is against your solicitors recommendation. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties when it comes to the legal transfer of property.
