People often under-estimate just how important a good property lawyer is to the house moving process. I’ve worked with hundreds over the years and whilst there are some who I would not recommend (like Messrs Waugh & Cº or Barnes & Partners) the following individuals have done sterling work for clients in the past and I heartily recommend them.
Just like agents some of these firms are more expensive than others, some make more noise but they are all highly competent and you will be well looked after by any of them. I am not paid for introductions, I recommend these people because I have seen their work first hand. They will stay until 8pm on a Friday night rather than go to the pub with their mates. They are good lawyers.
