We can't change solicitor since all the signed documents is owned by them.

I think you misunderstand. Generally speaking it's the client who "owns" documents. I suggest you speak to another solicitor to sort it out.

I suspect that a lot of the problem is that your solicitors are trying to sort out a mess caused by you simply going ahead paying a load of money without getting it done properly at the time.

You should have gone to a solicitor to make sure that the right documents were signed and consents obtained before any money was paid over. They are now trying to unscramble the mess you caused by trying to do it yourself.

So lemme be sure this is clear...

You jointly own a flat.
You own 37.5%, your friend owns 37.5%, "a company" owns 25%.

Four years ago, you wanted to buy your friend out.
You give your friend the value of their 37.5%, straight to their account, but the actual ownership still hasn't been transferred, because this mysterious company are dragging their heels.
The friend then moves out!

Am I understanding you right?

So friend has extricated himself. He's received his 37.5% (courtesy of your generosity) and walked away leaving you with the whole mess.

Not sure whether to applaud him or what.
