Frequently Asked Questions
Why Does The Bank Require Independent Legal Advice?
Banks and lenders require independent legal advice to ensure borrowers and guarantors understand the legal effect and risks of the documents they are signing.
Can I Use The Same Solicitor As The Borrower?
No. Independent advice requires a solicitor acting solely in your interests, not the borrower's interests. This is to ensure you receive unbiased legal advice.
Can The Consultation Be Conducted Online?
Yes, we can arrange an online or phone consultation for your convenience.
