Solicitor Gone Bust : What to do?

ninjaBob

Not sure if this falls under legal advice, feel free to close or delete if it's the case.

Our Solicitor has gone bust. We only have 1 cert and the the cert of compliance left. I was just wondering what we need to do to ensure everything proceeds as normal. I've notified the bank as to the change in solicitor, is there anything else I need to do?

As your solicitor would be dealing with all the legal issues, it is only right that you should talk to a new solicitor about what needs to be done. It is very important that you check the registration of title of your property and any undertakings given by your old solicitor to any financial institutions need to be honoured (usually to do with certifications). Anyway these issues are legal in nature and can not be discussed here (or I'll get ino trouble ).

u say u notified the bank of the change --- is that change of solicitor ? .... if so they should guide u thru

where solicitor goes bust ... law society moves in and takes over files and hand to ur new solicitor - contact regulation dept. law society dublin ... it will take a good few weeks to get de file so u may need to move on it - extra costs might be covered by law society compo fund but new solr will tell u
