Occupational Profile
Licensed Conveyancers are specialist property lawyers who deal with all legal matters relating to the transfer of ownership of land or property from a seller to a buyer; as well as legal advice and/or work carried out in connection with any transaction that creates, varies, transfers or discharges a legal or equitable interest in any real property. Conveyancers manage client portfolios in residential, commercial and agricultural contexts and provide conveyancing legal services on behalf of private individuals, commercial and charitable organizations, housing associations, public authorities, building companies, mortgage lenders, including banks and building societies.
The Conveyancing Apprenticeship is one of a number of equivalent ways to qualify as a Licensed Conveyancer and become an Authorized Person; Regulators approve Authorized Persons to carry out reserved legal activities e.g. a Licensed Conveyancer; a Solicitor; a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Legal Executives
Meeting the competency standards of the apprenticeship will enable the successful apprentice to become eligible to apply for a professional License to provide the reserved activity of conveyancing to members of the public and businesses.
