GWlegal has launched a “cast-iron” remortgage guarantee, where the fee quoted on day one will be the fee paid on completion.

The new guarantee applies to the fee quoted by GWlegal for its own legal work (excluding third-party disbursements). 

Emma Hall, head of sales at GWlegal, said: “Our broker partners and their clients deserve clear, transparent pricing that doesn’t creep up as the case progresses.

“I hear too many cases of firms offering low, so-called ‘fixed fee’ quotes to secure the business, before increasing costs further down the line, when it’s difficult for the client to pull out.

“Our remortgage guarantee gives clients total upfront payment security. No matter how long the case takes and whatever is thrown up during the conveyancing process, they pay the legal fee we initially quoted.”
