As with lots of service providers, often referrals from connections can be extremely useful or valuable. But there are lots of players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and mortgage companies may suggest lawyers to instruct. Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as one of the best in their field, but occasionally there may be a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You are free to appoint your own conveyancer. However, bear in mind that most mortgage providers have an approved list of lawyers you have to use for the lender related work in your house move.
