Speakers and Topics Residential Conveyancing Morning Session

Ian Quayle, Speaker and CEO: The Revised TA6

The revised TA 6 is compulsory for CQS accreddited firms in March 2026. In this presentation Ian will explore the following:

• Does the revised TA6 change the seller and conveyancer dynamic given the additional questions, the explanatory notes and the warnings to sellers in the new form.
• Are there risks for the conveyancer in providing explanation, information and advice concerning questions and what are the consequences of providing assistance to the seller client when required.
• How should problematical questions in the TA6 be dealt with?
• What are the lessons to be learned from Rosser v Pacifico and Patarkatsishvili v Woodward Fisher?
• What are the implications for conveyancers acting for the buyer?
• How should the retainer and report on title be amended?

Nigel Clayton, Barrister: Solicitors’ Duties to Advise in Connection with Residential Mortgages

• Mortgages are a huge part of the conveyancing process, but advising on them, that is, knowing when to advise; who to advise, and what to advise, often turns out to be a tricky exercise. This is a practical run-through some of the issues following Waller-Edwards v One Savings Bank Plc [2025] UKSC 22. It is presented by one of the country’s leading mortgage law experts!
