As with lots of professional services, often recommendations from relatives can be very helpful. Yet there are lots of players in a conveyancing transaction; estate agents, financial adviser and lenders may put forward conveyancers to appoint. On occasion these lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there may be a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You have the right to appoint your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that the majority of lenders have an approved list of conveyancers you have to use for the mortgage aspect of your home move.
I have instructed a Goodmayes conveyancing solicitor for our house purchase (novice purchasers) and have picked up in the Ts and Cs that they are not overseen by the FCA. Am I right to be concerned or is that usually the case with solicitor?
We can't see why they should be. Most lawyer don't lend money. You should check that they are governed by the SRA, who set stringent obligations regulating funds deposited in their bank.
