Fees and charges

​

When it comes to conveyancing, fees can vary widely between law firms and conveyancers. So also, can the type of service you receive. There are many costs however that are set by search bodies or government and these will be the same regardless of who does your conveyancing. For this reason, it is important that when you compare prices with other law firms, you only compare the lawyers professional fees.
