My mortgage broker has asked me for my Dursley lawyer’ panel reference for the Lloyds conveyancing panel. How do I find this out. I have tried my local Dursley office but they cant find it on their system.
You are best placed to get this information from your Dursley property lawyer . They retain a central record lender panel numbers.
I have todaybeen informed that Action Conveyancing have closed. They carried out my conveyancing in Dursley for a purchase of a freehold house 12 months ago. How can I check that my home is in my name in the name of the former proprietor?
The easiest method to see if the premises is in your name, you can make a search of the land registry (£3.00). You can either do this yourself or ask a law firm to do this for you. If you are not registered you can seek help from one of a number of Dursley conveyancing specialists.
Yesterday I discovered that there is a flying freehold issue on a property I have offered on two weeks back in what should have been a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Dursley is where the house is located. What do you suggest?
Flying freeholds in Dursley are not the norm but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even where you use a solicitor outside Dursley you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds very carefully. Your lender may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Dursley may decide that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
Are there any apps to assist me to locate a Dursley law firm on the Alliance & Leicester conveyancing panel? I have a car and am prepared to travel upto 25kilometers to meet the conveyancer.

Is it best to appoint a Dursley conveyancing solicitor who is local to the property I am purchasing? An old friend can perform the legal formalities however they are based 300kilometers away.
The primary upside of using a local Dursley conveyancing practice is that you can attend the office to sign documents, hand in your ID and pester them if necessary. They will also have local knowledge which is a bonus. However nothing is more important than finding someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If other friends have used your friend and the majority were impressed that should trump using an unfamiliar Dursley conveyancing lawyer just because they are based in the area.
