Checking a solicitor's regulation and accreditation
Solicitors in England and Wales are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), and you can confirm a firm or individual on the Law Society's Find a Solicitor register. Look for relevant accreditations such as the Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) for property work, Resolution membership for family matters, or the Law Society's Wills and Inheritance Quality Scheme. Firms handling conveyancing should hold professional indemnity insurance and be able to explain their fees clearly before you instruct them.
Comparing quotes and understanding costs
Ask for a written quote or client care letter that sets out fees, disbursements and VAT, as costs can be fixed, hourly or a percentage of a transaction. For conveyancing, disbursements such as search fees, Land Registry charges and Stamp Duty Land Tax are separate from the solicitor's own fee. If a matter may qualify, some firms offer no win no fee arrangements for personal injury, and legal aid remains available for limited categories such as some family cases.
Do I need to use a solicitor near me in Milton Keynes?
Not necessarily, as much legal work is now handled by phone, email and video call, so a firm elsewhere can act for you. A local solicitor in Milton Keynes can be convenient for signing documents in person, identity checks and understanding the local property market, but you should choose primarily on relevant experience, regulation and cost.
What is the difference between a solicitor and a conveyancer?
A solicitor is qualified to advise across many areas of law and is regulated by the SRA, while a licensed conveyancer specialises only in property transfers and is regulated by the Council for Licensed Conveyancers. Both can handle buying and selling a home, so the choice often depends on whether you also need wider legal advice.
