Has anyone any experience regarding abortive bills from conveyancing lawyers? Our house purchase has fallen through yet again, just before exchange and the lawyers are charging us an abortive bill of 95% of the cost of the completed conveyancing. It feels expensive, but should I just stump up and get on with it?
We are now buying another place and have asked them to quote, which has come in at more than the first place despite it being a cheaper flat. Getting a bit sensitive about legal bills, this is our third place to fall through in a year and we will have paid out nearly £4k in fees....first time buying has gone badly.
