Clarify whether help includes drafting, document checks, appointment arrangements and collection of the completed record. Ask separately about legal verification and later updates.
Think beyond getting a date
Your concern may be the deed wording, the people attending or a document still missing. Explain that when you ask for assistance. A booking service alone may not address it. Ask who will answer questions, what you need to do yourself and how extra work is charged. Keep government charges separate from the assistance fee in the estimate.
Find out who handles an office query
Ask whether the quoted work ends with preparing an appointment or includes assistance when a query is raised. Also clarify who reviews the deed and who gives legal advice. These roles may be handled by different people. Knowing the contact for each part saves you from being passed between a drafter, a coordinator and a lender on the day.
Before the appointment
- Get a written scope and itemised fee components.
- Identify the responsible legal professional for legal work.
- Ask how updates and unresolved questions will be communicated.
- Clarify cancellation, rescheduling and additional-work terms.
The next step
Write down the help you need and compare it with the proposal. You should know what will happen before paying or arranging travel.
Is a single point of contact enough?
It helps coordination, but you should also know who is responsible for the legal advice and other specialist work involved.
