I agree that NBM have some dire reviews, but look at Amy's reviews on trustpilot. She is the only one to get consistently excellent praise for her work and fast response times. If you want a cheap online no sale no fee conveyancer she is hard to beat.0

Good point, but is it possible to ensure you get Amy to work on your case? Or do you just get whoever happens to be available?0

You can request a particular solicitor, absolutely no problem0
-
Ok thanks for that. I will still follow my original advice though.0

OP, you're asking for a good conveyancing solicitor who will offer a no sale no fee.
Read that over and over until you realise that anyone good will want paying for their time whether or not the sale goes through0 -
Could not agree more.It is always best to use someone local ,then you can pop in with documents etc, or even to complain if you have to.!!0

Not necessarily.
The business model is typically that solicitors charge a higher fee for "no sale, no fee" conveyancing, than for "normal" conveyancing.
Often, it's just included in their quote, but one solicitor I used was completely up-front about this. He quoted:
- £550 for standard conveyancing
- £650 for "no sale, no fee" conveyancing
So I guess the extra £100 from all successful "no sale, no fee" transactions was intended to cover the costs of the unsuccessful ones.0 -
I think £100 notes to cover a drop out is probably a good insurance. if id used normal solicitors over the years I would have lost a fortune in sales that have fallen through.0
