Conveyancing solicitor key takeaways
- Conveyancing solicitors handle the legal work when you buy, sell, or remortgage property – from contracts to completion.
- For buyers: they check the property’s legal history, handle searches, review contracts, and ensure the purchase is legally sound.
- For sellers: They prepare legal documents, handle inquiries from the buyer’s conveyancer, and transfer ownership legally.
- Conveyancing solicitors protect your interests through the transaction and ensure all legal requirements are met.
Conveyancer vs solicitor: What’s the difference?
Both conveyancers and solicitors can handle your property transaction – the main difference is their training background.
Conveyancers are specialists trained specifically in property law and regulated by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC). They focus on buying, selling, and remortgaging property.
Solicitors have broader legal training across various areas of law, with some choosing to specialise in property law. They’re regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA).
Both are qualified legal professionals who must meet strict standards. At Eden, we’re regulated by the CLC, whilst some of our property lawyers may also be individually regulated by the SRA.
How to choose the right conveyancing solicitor
Experience matters
Look for a conveyancer with proven experience in your type of transaction. Whether you’re buying a new build, dealing with a leasehold, or handling a straightforward purchase, choose someone who regularly handles similar cases.
Clear communication
Your conveyancer should be easy to reach and provide regular updates. Look for firms offering 24/7 tracking, dedicated conveyancers, and prompt responses to your questions.
Transparent pricing
Get a full breakdown of costs upfront, including legal fees and disbursements. Avoid firms that keep their costs quiet or aren’t completely open with you from the start of the process.
Check reviews and reputation
Read recent reviews on platforms like Trustpilot to see what other clients say about their service, communication, and results. Look for consistent positive feedback over time.
Proper regulation
Ensure they're regulated by either the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) or Council for Licensed Conveyancers (CLC) and check they're on your mortgage lender's approved panel.
Online vs local
Online conveyancers offer digital platforms and 24/7 access, while local firms use traditional methods. Choose based on your preferences for communication, convenience, and speed.
