You may not hear this from too many lawyers but conveyancing in Park Hill and elsewhere in England and Wales is an adversarial experience. Put another way, when it comes to conveyancing there is lots of room for friction between you and others involved in the transaction. E.g., the vendor, estate agent and sometimes a bank.
