Residential Conveyancing

When you are buying or selling a property you need a conveyancer who is efficient, diligent and dependable. At FSP that is exactly what you will get.

Overview

Our Residential Conveyancing specialists are here to help you get your deal done as quickly and as efficiently as possible. Whether you are selling or buying (or doing both), we will do everything we can to ensure that the transaction proceeds smoothly and that you are kept fully informed at all times.

We would never pretend that every transaction runs exactly to plan but the test of a good lawyer is how he or she negotiates the bumps along the way. There is no getting away from the fact that your lawyer needs to be technically competent as well as having a good helping of common sense. That is what you will get at FSP. The other key ingredient is an efficient partnership between lawyer and client and we work very hard to ensure that this is achieved.

The group works closely with the firm’s wills, trusts and estates team and the divorce, family and civil partnership team to assist clients needing to transfer property following death or relationship breakdown.
