We used https://directionlaw.co.uk/ for a shared ownership sale in 2015 , we had to use an approved solicitor from the freeholder (Amicus Horizon) they were decent so used them again last year for a leasehold sale/ freehold purchase, they seemed to have gotten bigger but were still decent overall.

I just bought using Bishopsgate Law, who were absolutely excellent. We had all manner of issues with flaky buyer, incompetent other solicitors and useless estate agents in the chain and it took 9 mths end to end, but they were really good every step of the way - https://www.bishopsgatelaw.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI3pCngcij-AIVDO3tCh19TAPTEAAYASAAEgLjBfD_BwE
We finally moved on Tuesday, the day before our mortgage offer expired, and doing exchange completion on the same day because our buyer insisted on it for no reason she could explain to anyone. On sale day, her solicitor took the day off without telling anyone, including her client. The other guys in her office wouldn't do anything as she hadn't paid all her legal fees (because the useless twats hadn't invoiced her). It all got pulled together and we got the keys just before 5pm.
Had to give the removal guys an extra £500 for the delays those idiots caused. Would also recommend Fantastic Removals - second time I've used them, nice guys and worked their arses off.

Can anyone remind me of the forum's solicitor of choice these days? One with experience of shared ownership? Any good experiences out there?
