5th Floor, Llanthony Warehouse, The Docks, Gloucester GL1 2EH
Personal injury solicitor who has handled thousands of claims, with particular focus on fatal accidents and head and spinal injuries.
Conveyancing fees typically range from around £500 to £1,500 plus disbursements (search fees, Land Registry fees, and Stamp Duty where applicable), depending on the property's value and whether it's freehold or leasehold. Most solicitors will provide a fixed-fee quote upfront.
A straightforward chain-free transaction can complete in 6-8 weeks, but the UK average including chains is closer to 12-20 weeks. Leasehold properties, mortgage delays, and slow searches are the most common causes of delay.
Both can legally handle a property transaction. A solicitor is a fully qualified lawyer who can also advise on related legal issues (such as a dispute arising during the sale), while a licensed conveyancer specialises specifically in property transactions, often at a lower cost.
Conveyancing is largely done remotely by phone, email, and online portals, so many buyers and sellers successfully use a solicitor outside their immediate area. Local knowledge can help with unusual issues specific to the area, but it isn't a requirement for most transactions.
