Law firms ranked by client reviews
Charging a person’s property involves creating a secured right over a dwelling or other land to back a debt or obligation, typically in the form of a mortgage or charge. A solicitor in this area drafts and registers the charge, checks the title, and ensures the borrower’s and lender’s rights are protected, including appropriate proof of identity and funding arrangements. In practice, these matters are shaped by the security instrument, the terms of repayment, and the registrar’s requirements for land or title registration. The process often hinges on deadlines for registration and ensuring priority against other charges.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The act of creating or enforcing a charge can affect who owns or can sell the property, and late or improper registration can undermine the lender’s security or the borrower’s rights. A solicitor protects the client by ensuring the charge is properly drafted, valid, and enforceable, public records are correct, and steps to enforce or redeem the charge are clear. This involves working with lenders, borrowers, and the Land Registry; it may also implicate how the property is dealt with in potential future sales or remortgages.
