Sadly not. It's a total stitch-up and they know it. Explains the arrogance. 

  Exactly how is it a "total stitch-up" ?

See above

Which part exactly?

You don't seem very good at explaining yourself or getting your point across so any issues you have had with solicitors could have been due to your poor communication and them not understanding what your saying.

*your're (oh, the irony!)

Well actually it's "you're" so even more ironic 

But that's neither here nor their because it doesn't stop anyone understanding what i have written and doesn't change the fact that you still can't explain the point your trying to make and instead choose to pick up on a grammatical mistake instead.

Solicitors also work for the mortgage companies involved. They are also the solicitor's client. You are paying their fees within your costs. 

Thrugelmir, I'm intrigued by this.  Surely a solicitor always has to work in the best interests of the client and can't possibly do that if there are two clients involved?  I know the law is different in England, but I am aware of cases in Scotland where the solicitors have had to walk away from being on both sides of simple conveyancing cases.

If there is a such conflict, the solicitor has to advise the Lender they can no longer represent them and hand back the mortgage instructions.  

there are lenders in the specialist areas who insist on separate representation (paid for by the client of course)

Fair point. You got me. Why should I explain to a passive aggressive internet stranger?

Well this is a discussion forum and if you want a discussion on the subject then you need to explain your point of view, if you don't want to explain yourself then why post on a discussion forum in the first place...

Also it's interesting how you perceive me as passive aggressive when I'm the one attempting to directly discuss the issues with you and your trying to avoid it.
