Is the fact that my solicitor in Wolvey is not identified on my mortgage company's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of her work?

That would most likely be a wrong assumption to make. There are plenty of plausible explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% 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 solicitor 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 Wolvey conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.
