There were basically defying the data protection act by discussing their clients business with your solicitor.

One would hope that the client instructed the solicitor to pass that information on to the other party - for some strange reason.

That information might cause a nervous seller to withdraw, and find another 'lower risk' buyer. (Resulting in a complaint to the SRA, claim for damages etc...)


(Or cause the buyer to find another seller - it's a little difficult to follow who's who in the thread.)

Thanks travis32 I will try not to worry.

Ok amnblog point taken, but don't think you need the attitude! It was said that they believed this had been the case.

There is no attitude, and no-one has said you are not at fault.

I just find it astounding that a solicitor (your buyer's) will breach a client's confidence in this way.

If we did it, you can bet someone would be putting in a complaint.

However my solicitor has advised me that he was rejected a mortgage on a previous property.

Maybe the property at issue not the person......
