Why appoint a lawyer and not a conveyancer?

Lawyers have undertaken extensive education. They are not only able to advise you on the conveyancing process but will look out for your personal interests.They are up to date with all legislation. They understand the complexities and legal issues that may arise in the sale of a property and can advise you on your legal obligations under a Contract of Sale, negotiate or amend terms of a Contract and deal with the multiplicity of legal issues that may arise in a conveyancing transaction.

If you encounter any legal challenges during the conveyancing process, conveyancers are not trained to advise you on such issues.

Selling a property may also affect other matters such as taxation and Wills. Lawyers are qualified to advise you on these areas.
