  • I took to copying in my solicitors, the buyer’s solicitors and the estate agent on every communication because then no fucker could claim thy hadn’t been informed about X or Y.
    Seemed to wake up the buyer’s mob.

    I expressed my frustration about the buyer’s solicitors to a contract lawyer friend and she said “do they have ‘law’ in their name?”

    So to give yourself a better chance of not having a crappy factory conveyancer, avoid any firm with ‘law’ in their name.

  • Thanks, that sounds like good advice.

    Unfortunately I don't currently have the details of the seller's solicitors, but I guess I could ask my solicitor for that?

    The seller's crap solicitors don't have law in the title, standards must be slipping.

  • I think either the agent or my solicitor ‘accidentally’ quoted them in an email chain when forwarding it to me.
