Why do I need Independent Legal advice for my Metro Bank Mortgage?
Metro Bank will require an Independent Legal advice certificates to be signed by a solicitor in the following circumstances:
Such a step is usually time sensitive and could jeopardise the transaction if not completed in a timely fashion. This is often the final piece of the jigsaw in a long and laborious process. Your own conveyancing solicitor will be unable to offer this service as the mortgage company requires another independent solicitor to advise on the transaction. This is where we come in.
We are there for when you might need another solicitor standing by to deal with the final part of the transaction. We have a fixed fee advisory service and we do not require you to come to the office.
