Victim of the title deed nightmare

I bought a property in Cyprus in 2007, but I am still not in possession of the title deeds as they are with my solicitor. I signed the contract of sale in August 2007 endorsed by two representatives of the development company. My building had already been constructed and I had many meetings with my lawyer about my deeds and he told me on each occasion that everything was OK, but the land registry had a backlog.

I also applied to the land registry about three times paying €10 each time to obtain my deeds but to no avail.
