Its new service allows users to key in their postcode to find local conveyancing firms, with the search also providing details of firms who work across the country.

Searches generate a list of all applicable member firms with address and phone details, plus clicking on the name takes users to a dedicated page listing full information on the individual firm, the services offered, and full contact details.

The ‘find an expert’ service allows all the trade body’s member firms, which includes around 200 solicitors and licensed conveyancers, to list their details.

Conveyancing Association non-executive chair Nicky Heathcote says: “As a trusted source for those seeking conveyancing services, we are very pleased to be launching this new ‘find an expert’ search which will provide access to our high-quality Conveyancing Association member firms from right across the country.

“We know that many consumers, for example, are unsure of where to turn to when it comes to securing these services, so this new search should provide them with results that are either local to them or provide them with access to those many Conveyancing Association members who work with clients throughout the UK.

“Our aim is also to provide Conveyancing Association member firms with another avenue to market, and to ensure that consumers and industry stakeholders such as agents or advisers can use the search facility if they are seeking to point their clients in the right direction for quality conveyancing.”

The association’s next set of meetings takes place on 14 September at the Queen Mary Undercroft, within the Old Royal Naval College, in London. It says firms interested in joining the body are welcome to attend.
