Armstrong Solicitors was founded in Newtownabbey in 2009 and in March 2015 we opened our new headquarters in the centre of Glengormley. This 4,000 sq feet office has been designed to offer our clients a genuinely unique and professional experience. We offer legal services in most areas of law, particularly property / conveyancing, claims, family, debt / bankruptcy, and wills and probate. With free private car park, and services available 6 days a week, we can't always change the law, but we can change the way you experience it.

In Northern Ireland, can a buyer be left with nothing if he’s already signed the contract but the seller pulls out?

Yes, if the seller hasn’t signed and accepted the contract.

A buyer’s signature alone doesn’t create a binding sale, and completion happens when the seller’s solicitor receives the full purchase money, not when the keys are handed over.

If you’ve been caught in a collapsed sale, speak to your solicitor about where the contract stood.

Anti-money laundering checks can hold up your home purchase in Northern Ireland, and proposed reforms risk adding more admin for solicitors and more expense for the client.

We need to trace where your deposit came from, not just confirm you have the money.

That can mean going back years through savings statements, inheritance paperwork, or gift documents from the person giving the money.

Send everything promptly, tell us early if anything is hard to get, and flag any change in funding straight away to keep your move, and the whole chain, on track.

How long does divorce take in Northern Ireland?

The absolute minimum is around six to eight months, but it often takes longer.

Once you lodge your petition, a decree nisi can take around six months, followed by a further six weeks and one day before you can apply for the final order.

Delays usually come from agreeing finances, the family home, and child arrangements rather than the divorce itself.

Getting legal advice early and agreeing key issues before proceedings helps speed things up.

What are restrictive covenants in Northern Ireland property?

They’re legal restrictions in your title deeds that can stop you from doing things like extending, running a business from home, parking commercial vehicles, building structures, adding solar panels, and more.

They bind future owners too. Even old covenants still matter; not being enforced for years doesn’t make them disappear.

If you breach one, you could face a court injunction to undo work and pay damages.

Tell your solicitor upfront what you plan to do with the property so they can flag any restrictions before you buy.
