My financial adviser has requested my Abridge law firm’s panel member for the Nat West conveyancing panel. How do I discover this. I have e-mailed my local Abridge office but they cant find it on their system.

The Abridge conveyancing firm handling our Abridge conveyancing has spotted an inconsistency between the information in the valuation survey and what is revealed within the title deeds. My lawyer says that he is duty bound to ensure that the bank is OK with this discrepancy and is still content to lend. Is my conveyancer’s approach correct?
Your lawyer must comply with the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook provisions which do require that your lawyer disclose any incorrect assumptions in the lender’s valuation report and the legal papers. Should you refuse to allow your lawyer to make the appropriate notification then your lawyer will have no choice but to discontinue acting for both parties.
