It is illegal for the same solicitor to represent both parties. ____________________ <Simple> no I'm shaven Jon

its illegal and also professional curtesy , in that a single solicitor can clear things up real quick like and not raise pointless queries to increase hill payment at the end of it , with ttwo solicitors they can ping pong pointless enquiries back and forth and increase their fee on both sides. ____________________ Spain 2008France 2007Big one 2009 We all die.

Are you talking about using the same firm of solicitors or the same person?
If it is the same person it is illegal. However, if you are both using, say "Dixons" then it's not a problem, and in actual fact things will happen far more quickly if documentation isn't going to be lost or delayed in the post. ____________________ Avast! Pirates ahoy!

If using solicitors then there's lots more regulations than if you're just using a conveyancing firm. Use proper solicitors.
Don't use one's from the same company as the buyer as it'll only complicate things. You'd think that things would run more efficently but they'll be less willing to chase up and hassle the other side if it's one of their other offices.
Use proper solcitiors and use a different company to the buyer.
[random] Are you considering using a company called Countrywide Property Lawyers? |

Whats wrong with them... might be quicker and easier to say what's right about them.
- They've got call centres where you have to wait 10 minutes to get through to someone who doesn't know what they're talking about and then if you're lucky they'll be willing to put you through to the convreyancyer dealing with your file but more than likely they'll just talk crap and fuck things up.
- They make up shit, "we can't send faxes" when trying to get them to fax something they'd left til the very last minute. "We don't have the account facilities to do a BACS transfer" bollocks you bank with Barclays now give me my deposit back.
- They don't understand the concept of time and so leave everything to the last minute and are then suprised when the sale goes wrong.
- They lie. Something sent by RX (think that's the right name)with them manages to take a week instead of being next day.
If you are unfortunate enough to already be trying to deal with these people I do have the direct line and mobile number for the manager of Countrywide Plc who is responsible for CPL and is a good person to complain to. |

Can't say we ever had those problems.
We had two designated solicitors from Countrywide, and their direct numbers. Throughout the process they were really helpful and efficient even when Northern Rock buggered up our mortgage offer several times. ____________________ Avast! Pirates ahoy!

Which office of theirs were you with? I ended up with their Northampton office who were nothing but crap and the seller was with their Cardiff office who seemed equally unhelpful. |

Ours were in Manchester.
However, I spoke to the Northampton office on a number of occasions and found them more than helpful.
