Q. Am I obliged to allow the CLC’s agent to complete the work for me?
A. No, you have the right to appoint another lawyer. If this is your choice you will need to contact a new lawyer and provide them with your instructions. Your new lawyer will then need to contact our agents with your written authority to release the file to them. They can then advise of their requirements.
Q. Will I have to pay more for the work?
A. These lawyers will honour fee estimates that you agreed with Laurselle Property Lawyers but if any additional work becomes apparent you may be charged for this additional work. You will be advised in advance if such additional work becomes necessary.
If you decide to instruct another lawyer to complete the work there will be no obligation for them to match the fees that have been estimated by Laurselle Property Lawyers . You may also be liable to pay the costs for work carried out to date by Laurselle Property Lawyers .
Q. Laurselle Property Lawyers acted for me in the past and is holding my deeds – how do I get hold of these?
A. Deeds, as such, no longer exist as the majority of properties are registered electronically at Land Registry. If you need to prove ownership or are selling or re-mortgaging your lawyer will need to obtain up to date copies of the register from the Land Registry in any case.
