Hi
Hope someone can help. I took out a mortgage with Ulster bank to do up a property and was asked to furnish invoices each time I drew down funding as I did not take the entire mortgage out in one cheque. This practice was very time consuming and I requested Ulster bank put the remaining funds into my account to avoid delays. They appeared to agree to do this without invoices.
My solicitor refused to allow them to do this, saying she had to certify the title to the property used as security for the property. She disengaged me as her client without any explanation or warning save to say she had to certify title to the property and I was to get a new solicitor.
Subsequently I did at enormous expense and time.
Is certifying a title a major task & can I do anything to take the old solicitor to task?
Thank you
Mangos
