I chose a Victoria Docks based firm for our conveyancing in Victoria Docks yesterday. Upon checking the Terms and Conditions I seeI am on the hook for charges even if our purchase aborts. Should I go with them or appoint an on-line lawyer advertising no completion no charge conveyancing in Victoria Docks?
Generally there is a concession along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is offered then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to neutralise the cases that abort. Dont forget that these deals generally do not protect you from expenditure for example Victoria Docks conveyancing search charges.
I need some quick conveyancing in Victoria Docks as I have an ultimatum to sign on the dotted line inside one month. Luckily I do not require a mortgage. Can I escape the need for conveyancing searches to save fees and time?

I am a negotiator for a reputable estate agency in Victoria Docks where we see a few leasehold sales derailed as a result of short leases. I have been given inconsistent advice from local Victoria Docks conveyancing firms. Please can you clarify whether the owner of a flat can commence the lease extension formalities for the buyer?
As long as the seller has owned the lease for at least 2 years it is possible, to serve a Section 42 notice to start the lease extension process and assign the benefit of the notice to the purchaser. This means that the buyer need not have to sit tight for 2 years for a lease extension. Both sets of lawyers will agree to form of assignment. The assignment has to be done prior to, or simultaneously with completion of the disposal of the property.
An alternative approach is to extend the lease informally by agreement with the landlord either before or after the sale. If you are informally negotiating there are no rules and so you cannot insist on the landlord agreeing to grant an extension or transferring the benefit of an agreement to the buyer.
Having spent months of negotiations we are unable to agree with our landlord on how much the lease extension should cost for our flat in Victoria Docks. Does the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal have jurisdiction to calculate the appropriate figures?
Where there is a missing landlord or where there is dispute about the premium for a lease extension, under the relevant legislation it is possible to make an application to the LVT to assess the premium.

The number of years remaining on the existing lease(s) was 69.77 years.
Do I need to pop into the offices of the lender conveyancing panel solicitor to execute the legal charge? If so, I will instruct a firm who offer conveyancing in Victoria Docks as it will be easier to pop in to their offices when needed.
As opposed to 12 years ago, most lenders no longer require their conveyancing panel solicitor to witness the borrowers signature. You will still be obliged to provide ID Documents and there are still distinct advantages to using a local solicitor, in your case a conveyancing solicitor in Victoria Docks.
