Why Choose PLS Solicitors - Solicitors Altrincham

Five ethical principles which PLS Solicitors implement and will seek to implement in 2012 to continue to stand out from the crowd

  1. PLS Solicitors are to remain a niche commercial property and residential property law practice concentrating on commercial conveyancing and residential conveyancing in the following areas:
    • Knutsford
    • Timperley
    • Hale
    • Hale Barns
    • Didsbury
    • Chorlton
    • Wythenshawe
    • Sale
    • Longsight
    • Wilmslow
    • Alderley Edge
    • Stockport
    Because we are niche all our systems and all our training is focused in the area of commercial property and residential property. Which means we can deliver results like no other firm.
  2. We have taken a decision not to alter our fixed commercial conveyancing and residential property fixed fee conveyancing prices for the year.Whilst some firms may be looking to increase prices as they believe the market is getting better - we don't follow that ethic. We are an extremely competitively priced law firm and aim to continue to be so. Therefore whether you used our residential property lawyers in 2008 for a house purchase or our commercial property lawyers for a lease in 2008 - we aim to match those prices you got during one of the worst property recessions in history.
  3. PLS Solicitors aim to open up a london office in Camden predominantly providing commercial property and residential property law advice and conveyancing in Camden; Notting Hill; Primrose Hill; Knightsbridge and Hampstead. We aim to bring our revolutionary style of conveyancing to the London market - by maintaining the key principle that the client is always correct.
  4. PLS Solicitors will continue to invest in information technology by continually upgrading our conveyancing case management systems and specialist accounts features which means that we can hope to use information technology to continue to drive down on timescales during the conveyancing process. The fact that we use the Internet and email to their full potential means that we can convey a house from Notting Hill to Wilmslow.
  5. Being realistic. Our property lawyers never over promise and under deliver. We always provide realistic timeframes and pragmatic advice from the start so clients are never misled, we know how stressful it can be when selling and buying a new house or taking a lease of a commercial property for your first business venture.

Conveyancing Quality Scheme

PLS Solicitors are please to announce that conveyancing practice manager Pauline Gill has been instructed to apply for PLS Solicitors to be added to the Conveyancing Quality Scheme.

The conveyancing quality scheme will provide a recognised quality standard for residential conveyancing practices. Achievement of membership will establish a level of credibility for member firms with stakeholders (regulators, lenders, insurers and consumers) based upon:

  • the integrity of the Senior Responsible Officer and other key conveyancing staff.
  • the firm's adherence to good practice management standards.
  • adherence to prudent and efficient conveyancing procedures through the scheme protocol.

Our commercial property lawyers and residential property lawyers endorse this move by the law society. Aashim Dhand partner at PLS Solicitors comments:

"It is great news for the conveyancing industry that the law society have taken this move. Over the last 36 months it has been heavily publicised that there have been a spate of cases where solicitors have been implicated with mortgage fraud and we have seen complaints increase against conveyancing solicitors. All this has led to the general public becomming sceptical about instructing conveyancing practices.

This conveyancing quality scheme will be a chance for conveyancing practices who strive to provide the best service to their clients to be recognised for all this hard work.

At PLS Solicitors we are pleased to say that we have never received one complaint from a client. We are a 100% client focused firm who take feedback from our residential clients and commercial clients very seriously. We aim to provide the best possible conveyancing service at competitive rates. This ethos has seen a steady increase in the amount of business being sent to PLS Solicitors. These principles are the very corner stone upon which the firm has been established. We therefore hope to obtain the conveyaincg quality scheme's recoginition for all our hard work."

A Conveyancer and/or commercial lawyer who will provide a competitive price

If you are looking for value for money from your Solicitor don't simply take the first Solicitor that your Estate Agent recommends (after all the recommendation is often based on commission not quality).

Our commercial property lawyers provide quotes on a fixed fee basis which is extremely rare in the legal market.

A Conveyancer and commercial property lawyer with a quality guarantee

You should make sure that your service is regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and Council for Licensed Conveyancers. The SRA and CLC regulate all good quality Conveyancing firms.

A Conveyancer and commercial property who will give you their full attention

Many Conveyancers are completely on-line firms who will attract you with marketing promises and then pass your move on to a network of solicitor firms, rather than process it themselves. Whilst this arrangement is lucrative for the firm, it can lead to you being passed to a Solicitor / Conveyancer who you wouldn't choose to use yourself. We are different. Our service is completely over the phone and in person; we provide the best possible service in the most convenient manner to your needs.

Our partners have all been trained at large commercial city centre practices and therefore have the skills and the know how to deal with the most complex commercial property transactions and leases.

Someone who knows what they are talking about

Many firms put you in touch with third party firms which make it hard to know who to talk to. Make sure you use a firm who has the time, and the resources, to keep you up to date.

As stated above all our partners remain involved in a transaction from start to finish.

Make your move as stress free as possible

Moving home is one of the most stressful experiences many of us can face. Make sure you choose a service that makes you feel confident that your move will be as easy as it possible.

If you are setting up in business it is essential you instruct a commercial property lawyer to review your lease before sigining it. Speak to one of our friendly partners who will protect your interests now so at the end of the lease term you are well protected.
