Local conveyancing solicitor
Are online licensed conveyancing solicitors better than property lawyers near me?
Before the internet, finding licensed conveyancing solicitors in Chigwell would have meant to consult your local phone book or just to take a walk down your local high street to find your conveyancer near me.
Before modern ID checking processes your local conveyancing solicitors would need to meet with you to confirm who you were as part of their money laundering and 'Know Your Client' checks. Solicitors previously used to use this time to talk through the transaction with you in person - a part of the service that was reflected within their conveyancing solicitors fees. Nowadays, the legal process can be completed without face to face meetings, using online ID checks and new ID process.
Although local knowledge becomes critical when choosing your RICS surveyor for a home buyers survey, your solicitor in all cases, whether they're a 'conveyancing solicitor near me' or based 200 miles away will carry out their work by processing documents and forms, virtually all of which can be obtained and/or transmitted electronically.
There is no need for them to be based locally and you'll usually find that conveyancer near me will charge extra for business conducted 'in person' - such as ID checking - and that their time is better spent focusing on the paperwork. We welcome queries from our clients and act as the vital link between you and your solicitor which means you're kept in the loop and your solicitor is fully engaged in getting your move completed as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Conveyancing FAQs: Property Lawyers Chigwell
Essex is not only a coastal county (the North Sea is to its east) but a home county too because it touches Greater London on its eastern borders. Its settlements vary from Colchester, which is very historical - used to be the capital of England as Camulodunum, to Southend - a seaside resort and Basildon, which is a comparatively modern urban development. The western side of Essex hosts many London workers and there are fast rail links to, for example, Shenfield from London Liverpool Street which aid many city workers.
Essex's county town is Chelmsford (and is the county's only city), where Essex County Cricket Club is based. Essex hosts Stansted Airport and various attractions such as the Lakeside Shopping Centre near Thurrock and the Epping Forest, a popular forest for camping and other activities. A large proportion of Essex's boundaries are bodies of water (the River Thames and the North Sea), with the remainder including Greater London, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Suffolk. Kent is across the River Thames to the south.
