They would need to be very bad to suggest changing them. Has your mortgage offer been sent? In the event that it has you will need to inform them of the new contact details and ensure the mortgage documents are issued to the new lawyers. The solicitor ideally should be on the lenders approved list to avoid supplemental expenses and delays. So that should be your first question of the new conveyancers.
