Please Do NOT use David Woodward or Harrison's Solicitors for your conveyancing needs.
1. David did not agree a "retention fund" with the previous owner's solicitors. As a result, when there was a service charge adjustment from 2 years ago (that I should have had no liability for), I had to pay the amount! I checked with a number of people, including the previous owner, the building management and the residents association, and all unanimously suggested that my solicitor should have negotiated this upfront
2. David took a heavy-handed approach with the previous owner. He threatened to sue them despite my explicit instruction not to do so. As a result, the previous owner became defensive, and what could have been a simple negotiation, turned quite ugly. Net result was that I had to pay for the service charge adjustment
The advice online is pretty clear that it is the conveyancing solicitor's job to make sure that if there is a potential for a charge like this to be incurred in the future, they let the purchaser (me) know, which David didn't do, and is still not admitting negligence.
If you need peace of mind, please stay away from David Woodward and Harrison's Solicitors
