Frequently asked questions

Should I obtain legal advice before signing?

Yes. Reviewing the contract before signing usually provides the best opportunity to understand risks and negotiate suitable conditions. If you have already signed, seek advice promptly because time limits may apply.

What information should I provide first?

Tell us the property address, whether you are the buyer or seller, whether the contract is signed, and any known deadlines. We will then confirm how documents should be delivered.

Does contacting Ensure Legal create a solicitor-client relationship?

No. Ensure Legal must first complete its checks and confirm in writing that it can act for you.

Can you review commercial property contracts?

Yes. Ensure Legal advises on residential and commercial property transactions, subject to confirming the scope and availability for the matter.
