A bit of a 'length of string' q about solicitors

I don't think you always get what you pay for. There are some terrible ones who still charge very high ? I'd ask around for a recommendation as otherwise it is hard to tell. Do you have the rate you solicitor thing we have in NI? Something like that might be worth a look...

Mine was £800 I think, but it's a fixed fee which I liked. I've used her 3 times - once to go from offer to completion in 5 1/2 weeks. She's in Southend, but I've used her from London and Windsor and managed to do everything by phone/post easily.

I'd really recommend her, pm me if you want details.

We used a good one in Stockport. I can't remember how much though (but not too expensive). If you PM, I'll send the details over. They were very efficient and quick.

The Law Society is always a good place to start.

I know a fantastic Solicitor in Birkenhead, Wirral who I would definately recommend. No idea what they charge, my Aunt used to work in their conveyancing department and did all my conveyancing for free ? but they defintely know what they're doing. I'd be happy to pass on their details if you like

I've used them 3 or four times now and they are very effficient and reasonably priced. I think I paid about £350 last time.

Thanks all - have PM'd you for details (I think - never tried it before so hope it works!)

And thanks Emma - I've emailed them.

I would ask around for recommendations - your estate agent might be able to help
