    I just used a local solicitor - very good - have you tried the ones local to you?

    The good conveyancers are usually the local ones not the online ones.

    Where do you live? You may get lucky and someone on the forum can suggest a local solicitor that does conveyancing. 
    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.

    You could ask local colleagues who they used, perhaps, if that fits your circumstances
