Frame the question around the legal decision
The most useful conveyancing questions explain the stage reached, the document or party causing concern, and the decision you are being asked to make. That context helps separate routine delay from legal risk.
Useful details to include
- What stage has your transaction reached?
- Is this a purchase, sale, remortgage or transfer?
- Is the property freehold, leasehold or shared ownership?
- Has exchange of contracts happened?
- Is a lender, managing agent, local authority or another solicitor blocking progress?
