Hi there,

does anyone have recommendations for a conveyancing solicitor please. Also has anyone had experience of Armstrong and Co that they could share?

Many thanks

Back at the start of the year we used Meaby & Co of Camberwell and Patricia Shaw there was brilliant in guiding us through a very complex and awkward chain. Other friends have not been so flattering regarding other staff, but if you can get Pat she really goes the extra mile.

Minnie Waite at lzw law in London bridge was great for us. No nonsese and available unlike the previous bunch we used

I used Peter Russell at Meaby & Co and then my neighbours also used Meaby & Co. We had some complex shared freehold issues which both solicitors resolved very quickly to each of our benefits.

Surely a conflict of interest there??

Mustafa Hassan of Taylor Rose is a great real estate lawyer, more expensive than a conveyancer but if a more complex transaction then would always recommend a fully qualified solicitor.

I am currently using Peter Russell of Meaby & Co. Very pleased with the service and they have been super quick!

(I assumed the poster meant on two different jobs).

I personally wouldn't use anyone in London. We saved about ?500 using someone in the North West. It's largely an admin job so there's no benefit to you living close to the solicitor.

Pick an experienced firm which has good reviews but in an area where the property market isn't moving as fast as London (so you don't get snared by their busy workload which happened to us another time)
