conveyancing instruction form
BMTH
Posts: 86 Forumite
Stupidly signed a conveyancing instruction form on Monday for the purchase of a property we've had an offer accepted on. On further research and many bad reviews later, we want to use a different solicitor. We haven't heard back yet and haven't paid anything but did sign the form. What would be our chances of switching still?
For the record it was the EA's solicitor. (I should have known better)

Ask them to close the account. It should be fine.
Also most solicitors bang on about £300 kick back (as a comparison we tend to do £50) so you are probably also going to save yourself a few hundred quid if you go elsewhere.I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.
