Hi,<br> I completed on my property in May, I have just been informed that the conveyancing solicitor has been suspended. How can I check if the leasehold and freehold details have a) been submitted and b) are in the process of being amended?<br> <br> TYIA

Nadine - many thanks. Application against DT462326 and with us from May and waiting to be processed. We are aware of the intervention so you should follow the advice provided by the SRA for example re whether you appoint a new firm to act for you or seek to do this yourself. <br> If you decide on the latter then you can use our contact form to provide your details and an explanation of what you have decided - <a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/public-guidance-dealing-with-land-and-property#contact-form">Public guidance: dealing with land and property - GOV.UK</a> <br> NOTE - you also quoted the freehold title DT56082. The application as lodged is only against the leasehold title. The Transfer (form TR1) is also only against the leasehold title. But I note that the legal charge (mortgage) refers to both title numbers. IF you purchased both the freehold and leasehold titles and mortgaged both then the application needs to be amended - I would recommend discussing with your new firm or using the same contact form to make it clear as to what has happened and what the application should be for, namely both titles or just the leasehold. The casework team will then consider the application as submitted inc any contact from you
