CMS have
been providing property law and legal conveyancing services since 1995.
Our Directors have between them almost 60 years
of experience of working in the conveyancing and
property law
industry and we know what we are looking for in
a good conveyancing firm. We insist that our
conveyancing solicitors are registered with the
Law Society or the CLC. Every conveyancing
lawyers firm
must have at least two partners and be on the
panel of all major mortgage lenders.
All
of our conveyancers sign a legal agreement to
abide by the conveyancing quote 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.
The process of
buying a property will probably bring you into contact with a number of
professional people who are specialists in the property business, including
solicitors, estate agents, surveyors and mortgage lenders. Under UK law, the
ownership of real property (ie land and buildings) can only be transferred from
one person to another by means of a 'conveyance' and this legal process is
referred to as 'conveyancing'. At one time Solicitors had an exclusive monopoly
on conveyancing, but this is no longer the case and you now have the option of
hiring a Licensed Conveyancer, or even doing the conveyancing yourself (although
clients should beware that their lender may not always agree to this).
Our Quotes apply to England & Wales only and
your conveyancing quote will be provided by
a qualified solicitor firm that specialises in
property licensed conveyancing.
Our Solicitors are multi-partner firms and are
members of the Law Society and they are on the
panel of all major mortgage lenders.
