Me and my partner are planning to purchase a three bedroom flatin Havering with a mortgage from a bank. We would like to retain our lawyer in Havering yet our bank says he's not approved on their "panel". Apparently we need to choose one of the our bank panel firms or stay with our Havering conveyancer and pay for one of their panel ones to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?

No, not really. The lender home loan offered to you is subject to its terms and conditions, one of which will be that lawyers will on the lender's conveyancing panel. in the past, most banks had open panels, including many conveyancing solicitors in Havering : 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. A further alternative is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for your lender.
