Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a lender your solicitor has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook.

It is is a decade since I acquired my house in North Finchley. Conveyancing solicitors have now been instructed on the sale but I can't find the title deeds. Will this jeopardise the sale?

You need not be too concerned. Firstly there is a possibility that the deeds will be with your lender or they may be archived with the lawyers who acted in your purchase. Secondly the chances are that the land will be recorded at the land registry and you will be able to establish that you are the registered owner by your conveyancing lawyers acquiring current official copies of the land registers. The vast majority of conveyancing in North Finchley involves registered property but in the rare situation where your property is unregistered it is more tricky but is not insurmountable.

The North Finchley conveyancing solicitors that I recently instructed on my purchase in North Finchley have without warning shut down. They were on acting for me because I needed a solicitor on the Nationwide conveyancing panel and my previous North Finchley lawyer was not. I wrote them a cheque for two hundred pounds in advance. What are my options?

If you have an estate agent involved then let them know straight away so that they can let the sellers know that there may be a slight delay due to the problems encountered. Hopefully they will be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You will need to appoint new lawyers that are on the Nationwide conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new solicitors may be able to assist.
