Are there any conveyancing secretaries out there? Can you Help?

I have a job interview next week as a conveyancing secretary. I have lots of secretarial experience, but don’t really know what I would be doing as a conveyancing secretary. I would like to go into the interview and sound as though I know a little bit. Any advice?

I haven’t heard of this before, either. It looks like you’ll have to brush up on your ‘law’ skills before you go. If you have no law experience, tell them how much you’ve always wanted to work in the law field! (Only if it’s true, though, kay?)
