We used these results to appoint three local solicitors to our panel. All three were placed in the best eight for lowest fees.

The legislation and qualifying conditions are relatively complex, and valuations to purchase the freehold are a specialised area. If you are seeking to extend your lease or enfranchise, or are having problems with your landlord, you will also need to consult a solicitor experienced in this area of work.</font></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt"><font face="Arial" size="3"><o:p> </o:p> </font></span></p> <h1><font size="4" face="Arial">NOTICE & MISREPRESENTATION ACT</font></h1> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size:7.5pt;font-family:Arial"><font face="Arial">All property details are intended to give only a general indication of the property and floor layouts.
