My husband and I are hoping to buy a four room maisonettein Balsall Common with a home loan from a lender. We have selected a lawyer in Balsall Common but our bank inform us now that she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct from the our mortgage company panel firms or keep our Balsall Common solicitor and incur the extra fees for one of their panel ones to represent them. This seems very unfair; is there anything we can do?

Unfortunately,no. The bank mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that solicitors will on the bank's conveyancing panel. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels, including almost all conveyancing solicitors in Balsall Common : a borrower 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 bank.
