My fiance and I are purchasing a three bedroom apartmentin Ackworth with a home loan from a lender. We would like to retain our solicitor in Ackworth but our bank inform us now that she’s not on their "panel". We have to appoint one of the our mortgage company panel firms or stay with our Ackworth conveyancer and incur the extra fees for one of their panel ones to represent our mortgage company. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that our bank use our Ackworth lawyer?

No, not really. The mortgage company home loan issued is subject to conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the mortgage company's conveyancing panel. Until recently, most banks had large numbers of law firms on their panels, including almost all conveyancing solicitors in Ackworth : a mortgagee could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your mortgage company.
