Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in St Leonard Shoreditch is not listed on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of his work?
That would more than likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated that over three quarters of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack 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. Where you are concerned you should simply call the St Leonard Shoreditch conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your lender.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, but the selling agent has warned us that the owners will only proceed if we appoint the agent's chosen conveyancers as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’. My instinct tells me that we should use a local conveyancer used to conveyancing in St Leonard Shoreditch
