As someone unfamiliar with the Wednesbury conveyancing process what’s the number one tip you can give me concerning the ownership transfer in Wednesbury
You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Wednesbury and elsewhere in Birmingham is often a confrontational experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there exists plenty of room for confrontation between you and other parties involved in the transaction. E.g., the seller, property agent and sometimes your lender. Appointing a law firm for your conveyancing in Wednesbury is a critical decision as your conveyancer is your adviser, and is the ONLY party in the legal process whose interest is to look after your best interests and to keep you safe.
Sometimes a third party with a vested interest will attempt to persuade you that you should follow their advice. For instance, the estate agent may claim to be helping by suggesting your lawyer is slow. Or your financial adviser may tell you to do something that is contrary to your solicitors guidance. You should always trust your lawyer above all other parties in the conveyancing process.

How can we tell if a Wednesbury conveyancing solicitor on the Skipton panel is any good?

We would always recommend that you speak with the solicitor carrying out your conveyancing.

Local searches are not likely to be the root cause of slowing down conveyancing in Wednesbury.
My husband and I are first time buyers - had an offer accepted, but the estate agent advised that the owners will only issue a contract if we instruct the agent's preferred solicitors as they need an ‘expedited deal’. Our preferred option is to instruct a high street solicitor accustomed to conveyancing in Wednesbury
It is highly unlikely the sellers are behind this. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', taking such a hostile approach to a genuine buyer is counter productive. Try to communicate with the sellers directly and make sure they understand (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with mortgage lined up © you are chain free (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you will continue to appoint your own,trusted Wednesbury conveyancing solicitors - not the ones that will earn their negotiator at the agency a kickback or meet his conveyancing figures pre-set by senior management.
