My husband and I are purchasing a 3 bedroom flat in Frinton On Sea with a mortgage. We like our Frinton On Sea conveyancer, but the bank says she’s not on their "panel". It seems we have no option but to instruct one of the mortgage company panel conveyancing practices or retain our Frinton On Sea conveyancing practitioner as well as pay for one of their panel firms to represent them. We regard this is inequitable; are we not able to insist that the bank use our Frinton On Sea lawyer ?

No, not really. The mortgage offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender’s conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of law firms on their panels: 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 Frinton On Sea conveyancing solicitor to apply to be on the conveyancing panel.
