The nationwide CMS panel offers conveyancing UK solicitors

Conveyancing and Solicitor Fees explained

Conveyancing is the word that defines the transfer of land or house property from one party to another. Licensed conveyancing in  England & Wales is carried out by conveyancing solicitors who are governed by the Law Society or licensed conveyancers who are governed by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers. Both of these organisations are there to protect the public and all conveyancing solicitors and licensed conveyancers must have in place indemnity insurance to protect their clients. The conveyancing house process can be complex and stressful and it makes sense to use a qualified conveyancer to take care of your property transaction. If you have a mortgage on the property all mortgage lenders will insist that you use a qualified conveyancer who is on their conveyancing panel.  All of the conveyancers on the CMS panel have been chosen by us because they are either Law Society or CLC registered and are on the panels of all major mortgage lenders. For a more detailed explanation of how the Licensed Conveyancing Law process works check out our Conveyancing Guide which you will find in the menu on the left hand side.

How to choose a good Property Licensed Conveyancer

CMS have been providing conveyancing services since 1995. Our Directors have between them almost 60 years of experience of working in the conveyancing industry and we know what we are looking for in a good conveyancing firm with low fees. We insist that our conveyancing solicitors are registered with the Law Society or the CLC. Every conveyancing firm must have at least two partners and be on the panel of all major mortgage lenders. Our conveyancing solicitors must specialise in conveyancing law. We insist that a dedicated and named conveyancer is appointed to take care of CMS clients and every conveyancer must be qualified to carry out conveyancing services. We look for conveyancing firms who present a good, public image via their own web-site, who provide up to date electronic case-management and on-line tracking and updating. All of our conveyancers sign a legal agreement to abide by the quotes we provide, not to charge "hidden extras" and also to provide the level of service published in our Service Charter - which you will find in the left hand menu. In a nutshell a good conveyancer will be qualified, experienced, pro-active, IT literate, able to communicate effectively and have a friendly and helpful personality. All conveyancing direct lawyers are approved by CMS.
