Looking for a simple but legal (RICS) valuation survey in East London - how to choose

I'm looking for a RICS surveyor in East London to value my property for equity following a separation.
I've looked at the RICS listings - is there anywhere to get recommendations?

There isn't really a concept of a 'legal' valuation.
Do you mean that you are anticipating 'going legal' with solicitors, and perhaps ending up in court, and you want a valuation that you could present to a court as evidence?
A better solution might be if both parties can agree to jointly instruct an RICS valuer, having agreed in advance to be bound by whatever the valuer decides.
Otherwise, if you each instruct your own valuer - your valuer might say the property is worth £x and the other party's valuer might say the property is worth £y - and you then have to argue it out.
(The simplest solution might be if the 2 parties just agreed between themselves what the property is worth - but I'm guessing that might be challenging.)

More than 'challenging' I'm afraid....0
