Your Conveyancer, Cinnamon Property Lawyers and Rowlinsons are amongst a range of conveyancing firms in the UK that have joined the Conveyancing Association in a sign of commitment to improving standards in the industry.
The CA is the only trade body specifically representing the interests of licensed conveyancers and conveyancing firms in the UK and welcomes the following firms since the beginning of the year:
- Birchall Blackburn
- Cinnamon Property Lawyers
- DC-Law
- Rowlinsons
- Robert G Sinclair & Co
- Taylor & Emmet
- Your Conveyancer
- Cotswold Conveyancing Centre
CA membership includes a broad church of international, national, regional and local firms spread across the UK. The majority of which are among the Land Registry’s list of leading conveyancing firms in the UK.
Eddie Goldsmith, Chairman of CA, said:
“It’s great to these quality companies on board and it’s encouraging to see a real commitment from firms of varying sizes to improve standards as we shape our industry in difficult times. The multitude of challenges has created a perfect storm which will undoubtedly lead to a major reduction in the number of firms dabbling in conveyancing leaving specialist providers in the market.
"In addition, we are currently in conversations with several lenders about the challenges we face and how conveyancers can offer better services so that we can progress in a way that suits all our interests. The new members that have joined CA will therefore greatly benefit from this engagement.”
Denis Stevenson, Managing Director of Cheshire firm Rowlinsons, said:
“We are aware that lenders are making changes to their panels, as such we recognised the need to be part of the group which is having an ongoing dialogue with them and other key stakeholders.
"It’s important to have a distinction between quality conveyancers and the rest of the market and membership of the Conveyancing Association can help us to achieve this. We are very excited about being part of the changes that will develop over the coming months.”
