The primary upside of using a local The Park conveyancing practice is that you can pop in to execute paperwork, present your identification documents and apply pressure on them where appropriate. Having local The Park know how is a benefit. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who instructed your friend and the majority were happy that must outweigh using an unknown The Park conveyancing lawyer solely due to them being local.
Can you offer any advice when it comes to appointing a The Park conveyancing practice to carry out our lease extension conveyancing?
If you are instructing a property lawyer for lease extension works (regardless if they are a The Park conveyancing practice) it is essential that he or she should be familiar with the legislation and specialises in this area of work. We recommend that you make enquires with two or three firms including non The Park conveyancing practices prior to instructing a firm. Where the conveyancing practice is ALEP accredited then that’s a bonus. The following questions might be useful:
