I am not well enough to travel far from Marston Moretaine. I would like to know the understand why all Marston Moretaine lawyers are not on all lender panels?
Lenders normally impose restrictions on either the nature or volume of conveyancing firms on their panel. Frequent examples of such restriction(s) being that a organisation needs to have at least two partners. As well as restricting the nature of firm, some lenders decided to limit the number of organisations they use to represent them. It is worth noting that lenders have no liability for the standard of advice given by any Marston Moretaine conveyancing practitioner on their panel. Property fraud was a key driver in the culling of conveyancing panels a few years ago even though there are differing points of view concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics from HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing organisations only conduct less than three conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel cuts question why conveyancing firms should have any entitlement to be listed on a conveyancing panel when clearly conveyancing is not their primary expertise?

Developers have suggested I use a solicitor and I've sought an estimate from them. It's nearly £300 cheaper than my preferred Marston Moretaine solicitor. What's the catch?
Housebuilders frequently have lists of conveyancing practitioners who expedite matters and who know the developer’s paperwork and lawyer. Plenty of developers offer an inducement to choose a preferred conveyancing practitioner for this reason, any increased fees can be avoided and a developer will not recommend a conveyancing factory and run the risk of having the transaction stall when they demand an exchange in 28 days. A counter-argument for not opting for the recommended solicitor is that they may be hesitant to fight for your interests at the risk of upsetting the developer. If you worry that this may be the case you should keep with your local Marston Moretaine conveyancing practitioner.
