This may sound a stupid question, but when you buy a new house, do you have to use the same solicitor as you did when you bought it? Example, bought a house in 2015 say we were selling this year would we need to use the same solicitor as we did in 2015?
We also need to get some wills drawn up, would we need to use the same solicitor?
Thanks

Of course not. Use whoever you please.Nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. - Alex Supertramp0

As others have said, it doesn't have to be the same solicitor, you can use whoever you choose i.e either someone at the same firm as you used previously if you were happy overall or a completely different firm and solicitor.
Most solicitors specialise so I suspect you will need a different solicitor for your Wills although you may find the firm that you choose for your conveyancing have a Wills and Trusts department.0 -
You don't even have to use a solicitor at all.
You can do the conveyancing yourself if you wish.0 -
Thankyou all0
