We went with a high street solicitor for our conveyancing in East Beckton recently. After carefully reading the official terms of business I seeI am responsible for charges even where the conveyance does not complete. Would I be best advised to use an on-line firm advertising no completion no charge conveyancing in East Beckton?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be more expensive to counteract those cases that fail to complete. Also remember that these schemes generally do not cover expenses e.g. East Beckton conveyancing search charges.
Please help. My East Beckton solicitor is advising me that he has toconduct East Beckton conveyancing searches due to the fact thatthe firm are on the Nat Westconveyancing panel. Do I not have a choice here?
You have limited options available to you.

Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out East Beckton conveyancing searches.
