If you have been asked to get Independent Legal Advice (ILA) in Preston, you may be unsure why it is required or what the process involves. Many lenders across Lancashire now insist on ILA for personal guarantees, transfers of equity, or certain mortgage products. At Adkirk Law in Preston, we provide clear and fast ILA appointments to help you complete your transaction without delay.
Why Is ILA Needed?
Lenders want to make sure you understand the risks involved in the document you are signing. To do that, they ask you to see an independent solicitor. This protects both you and the lender. It also reduces the chance of future disputes.

-
Signing a personal guarantee

Completing a transfer of equity
-
Joining or remortgaging a mortgage in Preston or Lancashire

Acting as a joint borrower, sole proprietor
