Im looking to sell and I have used NBM in the past, but not since 2007. I was reading on this forum several bad experiences so I am cautious to use now in 2015.
Can someone recommend an online one or a north london solcitor to handle the sale?

I used Beaumont Legal for my property in 2007 and just recently. Can't fault them. You have to chase them up sometimes but I suspect that's the case with all solicitors.0

Online or local aren't the only options. You could perfectly well use a bricks & mortar firm of solicitors on the other side of the country. Even if you use a local firm most of your interaction with them will probably be via phone, email and post. The only real advantage of a local firm is that you can visit in person to sign documents, present ID and chase them up if necessary. They might have some useful knowledge of common local issues that can arise, but a decent solicitor should pick these up wherever they are.
Conveyancing is usually done on a fixed fee basis, so solicitors are never going to be as responsive as if you were paying them by the hour (they are usually only too happy to take your calls in that case).Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
