What happens if my solicitor is expelled from the Kent Reliance Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Little Bromwich?
The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.

As far as conveyancing in Little Bromwich registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can adjust according to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and if the Land registry need to notify any other persons or bodies. As of today approximately 80% of submission are completed in less than three weeks but occasionally there can be protracted delays. Historically registration takes place after the buyer is living at the property so 'speed' is not always an essential issue but where there is a degree of urgency associated with the registration then you or your lawyers should speak with the land registry and explain the circumstances.
