Please help. My solicitor is advising me that he is legally obliged to conduct a Local Authority search stemming from the fact that the firm are on the Landbay Partners approved lawyer panel. Do I not have a choice here?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with Landbay Partners your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of Landbay Partners’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook requirements last updated Landbay Partners. even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out a local authority search.
