I have recentlybecome aware that Wolstenholmes have been shut down. They conducted my conveyancing in Worcester Park for a purchase of a leasehold flat 10 months ago. How can I check that the property is in my name in the name of the previous owner?

The quickest method to see if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Worcester Park conveyancing specialists.

I have been pointed in your direction by a couple of local estate agents in Worcester Park to find a conveyancer using your seach tool. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to offer your lawyers rather than another?

We refuse to make any referral fee for sending work to this site. We found it would be just too difficult to pay a commission because home movers will think, ‘Why is the agent getting a kickback? Why am I not getting any benefit too?’ So we decided to step away from that.

We're first time buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent told us that the owners will only move forward if we use the agent's recommended solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a family conveyancer with experience of conveyancing in Worcester Park

It is improbable the sellers are behind this. Should the owner desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the vendors direct and explain that (a)you are genuine purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to appoint your own,trusted Worcester Park conveyancing solicitors - as opposed tothe ones that will give their negotiator at the agency a introducer fee or meet his conveyancing targets demanded by senior management.

My conveyancers in Worcester Park have advised me that they can not locate my conveyancing file. To assist with my purchase I took out a mortgage with the lender. Is it case that being on the mortgage company conveyancing panel they need to have retained the file for a prescribed period?

It very much depends from lender to lender but many of the Terms and Conditions of Conveyancing Panel Appointment require the file to be held for a period of 6 years. That being said we have not seen a copy of the bank Conveyancing Panel Terms. It might be worth you contacting the lender directly.
