Solicitors are professionally qualified and know the position. They need to quickly adapt to this issue and will advise their clients accordingly. Some people will be comfortable with submitting claims themselves. For example, one can register land without the presence of a solicitor. There is no legal requirement to use a solicitor and one can get the forms and maps from the Land Registry and transfer the land themselves. When dealing with transfers of property, most people find it more convenient to use a solicitor. After all, solicitors do this on an ongoing basis and can do it more quickly because it is in their field of expertise.
