Associate Director and Conveyancer at Lockings Solicitors

Lynsey Schofield

Associate Director and Conveyancer

I’ve worked at Lockings since 2003. I initially worked in one of our branch offices with a small team dealing with all types of residential conveyancing for the local market. Prior to that, I gained experience in both a high street practice and a large volume conveyancing firm in Leeds. During the past eight years I have worked at our Hull office where our firm established strong relationships with several nationwide providers of conveyancing services. Having a place on their panels requires a high standard of customer service combined with jargon free legal advice for clients all over England and Wales. The combination of experience in dealing with both a local and nationwide market allows me and my experienced team to use our extensive conveyancing knowledge alongside our bespoke case management system to ensure our client’s journey is as seamless as possible as they move from one property to the next. My team and I have a lot of returning clients which pays testament to the service they receive.

House purchase

Fantastic service from start to finish - I used them to sell my house last year and they did a good job so I got them back to help with the purchase of my new house this year and they didn't disappoint. Searches and enquiries were raised quickly and information wasn't sat on fir any length of time like some solicitors do.
Would definately use them again for any future house purchases / sales.

Already used Lockings for several property purchases and sales. I have also used the competition but Lockings so far have been the best. I'm sure I will be buying again one day and I'll be back when I do.

Fantastic, professional service

We had the most complex of chains when we were buying and selling our home, but all the team at Lockings, especially Lindsay and Bridie were so helpful and answered any worries or questions we had along the way. They really were so efficient and took a lot of the stress and headaches that come with selling your home. Thank you everyone at Lockings!
