In reality you may find only minimal differences in the fees of the majority of good quality firms in your area. Ask who will have conduct of your file should your solicitor be ill or take annual leave. At the least you must be advised, when you instruct a firm, of the name and qualification of the person dealing with your transaction. Reputation - without doubt the best way to find a good solicitor is via a personal recommendation so why not ask friends, family and work colleagues if they can recommend a solicitor for you. Your solicitor must be able to work effectively and you may wish to enquire whether a solicitor has capacity to deal with your transaction at the speed you require.
