Hi,
I bought my house 5 months ago and paid the stamp duty to my solicitor. Yesterday my solicitor contacted me and informed me that he is only now handling my stamp duty payment. I presume this means that he has had my stamp duty sitting in his bank account and is earning interest. If this is the case, am I entitled to claim the interest that he has received back off him ?
Thanks
