I have been pointed in your direction by numerous selling agents in Blaina to choose a solicitor on your site. Is there a financial incentive for Estate Agents to promote your lawyers over and above another?

The benefit of a local Blaina conveyancing firm is that you can attend the office to execute paperwork, hand in your identification documents and pester them where appropriate. Having local Blaina know how is a benefit. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and in the main were content that must outweigh using an unfamiliar Blaina conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being Blaina based.
