My sale has just fallen through again. Does anyone know of a good, proactive property lawyer?

David Hovey at Adams & Remers is brilliant. I have used him several times and he has always been really proactive. Always ask for a fixed fee though.
Good luck

I've just used Colin Edmonds of Howlett Clark in Brighton to buy my house. An extremely complicated sale and he managed it admirably. I may not have been the easiest client he has had as I did ring him a lot (but I think you do have to keep convenyancing solicitors on their toes). Still, the conveyancing took 4.5 months and there was only one price rise over this time (which I feel lucky to have got away with). My conveyancing file is about 6" thick.

I've also used his colleague Tim Fenton for sorting out various leases and buying a business building in Lewes. Very impressed with him. Tel: 01273 718541

I would highly recommend Sarah Edmunds Legal in Lewes.

Thanks - I think I will go for one of MC's connections as I've had experience of Adams and Remers before.
BJ - do you have a specific reason for recommending Sarah Edmunds?

Fed up
I and other family members have only used her services for making our wills but she also does conveyancing. I found her very professional, friendly & importantly to me, sensibly priced compared with some other solicitors.
