Before choosing a professional: credentials to check
Before instructing a solicitor, verify the individual and firm in the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) Register. For valuations, verify any claimed RICS membership or regulated firm status through RICS. A membership badge is not proof by itself.
If you receive an informal offer, compare the proposed term, premium, ground rent and professional charges with the statutory route. An initial quote should explain what remains uncertain.
Your next step, made clearer
Avoid requesting a quote with half the facts. Prepare your lease, term and cost questions first.

- What regulator or professional body supervises the practitioner, and where is their status listed?
- Have they handled matters involving similar facts and the relevant jurisdiction?
- Who will be responsible for your file day to day?
- What is included in the written fee quote, and what would cause additional charges?
- Which deadlines, uncertainties and alternatives do they identify?
- Do any referral fees, commercial affiliations or conflicts apply?
