How often can I call my solicitor?

Hassle as often as you can bear!! We've been trying to exchange for 2 weeks and still not end in sight...waiting on our buyers solicitors so its not actually our solicitors fault...they will not chase other parties sadly.
You're best to get your estate agent to be chasing too...they should be pushing the sale forwards if they want their money...in our experience the agents are more useful at the end at putting on extra pressure. Good luck!0 -
The more you 'hassle' your solicitor the less they spend on your case file. Send an email outlining what you want to know, where you want to be and ask for an update by a certain date. Hassling is by definition pointless. No one wants to be hassled!3

Maybe a solicitor or conveyancer on this forum can confirm what they would advise2

When we were buying and had issues we needed to discuss with our solicitor we emailed asking to schedule a call. This meant we weren’t asking her to drop everything and pick up our file on demand, but gave us an opportunity to get an update. It also meant hat she was ready to discuss our file when we had the call.1
