Hi
After waiting patiently to purchase off plan for 3.5 years, a property which should have been completed 3 years ago we have advised our solicitor to withdraw.
He has asked for power of attoney to do this and sent a "general power of attoney" - we are uncomfortable with this due to the extent it enables him to exercise in our absence. Is this an unusual request?
What steps does a lawyer need to take to get our money back? We have had 2 guarantee's from the builders bank, the last one ran out June 08 and they have failed to provide a fresh one!
Advice appreciated.
