Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my conveyancer in Felinheli is not identified on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of his conveyancing?

It would be unwise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Felinheli conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

The primary upside of using a high street Felinheli conveyancing firm is that you can pop in to sign documents, deliver your ID and apply pressure on them if necessary. They will also have local intelligence which is a bonus. That being said it's more important to get someone that will pull out all the stops for you. If you know people who used your friend and on the whole were impressed that must surpass using an unknown Felinheli conveyancing solicitor solely due to them being Felinheli based.
