Official Local Land Charges Searches

The Local Land Charges Section carries out all official searches covered by the Local Land Charges Act 1975.

It does this guaranteeing complete and comprehensive replies by us to the Official Certificate of Search (LLC1) and CON 29 enquiries.

The Law Society, which regulates solicitors, encourages the use of official searches and considers that alternative personal searches of the statutory register, disclosing only limited information, should be undertaken only with the approval of the client when time does not permit official searches.

Members of the public are advised to confirm with their solicitors that an official search has been undertaken and to inspect the Official Certificate of Search (LLC1) and CON 29 enquiries to ensure that they have both been carried out to their satisfaction.
