At that price and as I think the bulk of that bill will be outlays & VAT and as they are solicitors rather than dodgy builders (see another thread about demands for cash payments), I can't see it coming down for cash or even gold bars.
What did the quote say? Did you ask the solicitor about "hidden fees"? Did you ask if delays will cost you more? Did they put any provisos in the quote?
I usually (not always) pay some up front and the balance on completion and receipt of final account.
I'd guess more like 1% + VAT plus outlays - (600 + 129 VAT) + c. 870 outlays, fairly tight I'd sayThat quote equates to nearly 2.7% ...
I'd agree with Kate10. If you pay peanuts all you should expect is Monkeys. There is no solicitor that will try and lose a business account by overcharging the offspring of a business man. BTW have you asked your father of his thoughts and comments ?
TBH, when it comes to solicitors, I would ignore prices and concentrate solely on personal recommendations. Your comment about paying peanuts and getting monkeys is an awful generalisation - I paid 1667 all in for my conveyancing and the solicitor was excellent and I found her through personal recommendation.
Wouldn't agree with that 100%. For a simple conveyancing matter, price should be the main driver. It's a simple process for any small town solicitor.
If it's anything complex, then you need to look at personal recommendations.
I would argue that there is no such thing as a simple conveyancing.

Anyone know if i pay in cash do i get a discount?
Funnily enough, my introduction to 'discount for cash' came for a solicitor who did a bit of personal injury work for me many moons ago.as they are solicitors rather than dodgy builders (see another thread about demands for cash payments), I can't see it coming down for cash
Whose fault was it that the orignal tranfer was incorrect?3. the site as originally transferred was incorrect and a further piece was added to the folio a couple of years ago to rectify matters. But it still doesn't look right.
