it’s important to consider the following:

  • Experience and qualifications: Look for a solicitor who has experience in handling property transactions and is qualified to practice conveyancing.
  • Speed of service: It’s important to find a solicitor who can handle your transaction in a timely manner, as delays can cause problems with the sale or purchase of a property. 
  • Communication: Look for a solicitor who is responsive and easy to communicate with, as you’ll need to keep in touch with them throughout the process. 
  • Fees and costs: Compare the fees and costs of different solicitors to ensure you are getting a fair price. Some solicitors may charge additional fees for things like disbursements, so make sure you understand what you will be paying for. 
  • Reviews and testimonials: Look for solicitors that have good reviews and testimonials from previous clients. 
  • Location: If you have a complex property that you’re buying, it’s important to choose a solicitor who is based in the same area as the property you are buying or selling, as they will be more familiar with the local situation 

 

It’s a good idea to get a few quotes from different solicitors, so you can compare prices and services before making a decision.
