We are a couple of weeks into a freehold purchase having been referred to a firm by the local agent to carry out the conveyancing in Llanrhystud. I am not happy. Could you you assist me in finding new lawyers?
They would have to be really poor to suggest replacing them. Has your mortgage offer been generated?

The solicitor ideally needs to be on the banks panel to avoid escalating fees and delays. That should be your first question of the new solicitors.
