This book is an updated edition that takes into account new developments since the previous edition was published in 1992, in particular the increased significance of environmental searches. “The Law Society has stipulated that the buyer’s solicitor must advise the client about potential liability for contaminated land; furthermore, the Land Registration Act 2002, due for implementation in 2003, will change land registration procedures in readiness for the introduction of e-conveyancing.” All these changes will have an impact upon the process of conducting searches and enquiries making “Conveyancing Searches and Enquiries” a useful tool for residential and commercial conveyancing solicitors. The book specialises on the kinds of searches and how to conduct them and so is helpful for property law students. - Conveyancing Quality Scheme by The Law Society:

The second edition of this popular toolkit has been fully updated to incorporate the changes brought in by outcomes-focused regulation. The toolkit contains an extensive range of template policies and documents, all of which are provided on the book’s accompanying free CD-ROM, enabling you to customise them as needed.”
