Anyone know about property?

I would be livid if a bill turned up a year later! Im not sure if technically you have to pay it or not though.

That is odd, and I would not be impressed after all this time.

On the flip side we got sent a cheque by our solicitor in April following our house sale/purchase. The letter said they'd done their end of year accounts and it was extra/interest left from what we'd paid them or something. It was only £60-odd but still a nice surprise!

It's taken my husband in excess of five years to get paid by some of his instructing solicitors, so nothing will ever surprise me about them.
