Frequently Asked Questions
Standard conveyancing typically takes 60–90 days from instruction to completion.
You will need a proposed company name, director/shareholder details, a registered office address, and a memorandum and articles of association.
The first step is a confidential consultation. We assess your assets, family structure and wishes, then prepare a comprehensive plan.
Our fees comply with the Advocates (Remuneration) Order. For other matters we offer hourly, fixed-fee or retainer arrangements — agreed transparently before work begins.
