Is the fact that my solicitor in Woodbury is not identified on my lender's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the quality of her 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 indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) lack 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 Woodbury conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

We are expecting a mortgage offer soon. The bank mentioned the loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to use their panel solicitor as I would much rather instruct a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Woodbury?
Do check but the the probability is that appoint one of their panel solicitors should you take up the "fee-free" incentive. Speak to the lender and see if they make available a monetary alternative. It is not unheard for a lender to give a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case that money can go towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor near Woodbury.
