What happens if my lawyer’s firm is expelled from the Aldermore Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Bargoed?
First, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.
I am assisting my step-mother sell her house in Bargoed. Does the solicitor order the EPC or do I organise this?

An energy performance certificate should be to hand in advance of the property being marketed. This is not something that conveyancers normally organise. Where you are instructing a Bargoed conveyancing solicitor they might be willing to arrange EPC’s given their contacts with long established Bargoed accredited person
We had chosen solicitors with offices in Bargoed on the Yorkshire BS solicitor panel. They are now charging me a separate amount for dealing with the Yorkshire BS mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Yorkshire BS?
Unfortunately, so long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your lawyer can charge a fee for this. The fee is not set by Yorkshire BS but by your Bargoed property lawyer. Numerous firms on the Yorkshire BS panel will levy an ‘acting for lender’ fee but some firms include it on their overall fee.
Barclays have agreed my mortgage in principle, my bid on a property in Bargoed has been agreed to, what are the next steps?
The property agent will need to know who your solicitors are (be sure the conveyancing practitioners are on the bank’s panel). Contact Barclays or the financial adviser and finish off any relevant documentation. Barclays will appoint a valuer who will get in contact with the selling agent or owners to schedule an appointment. Once conducted (assuming no problems) it takes about a week for the mortgage offer to be issued. Barclays will issue the offer to you and your solicitors. The transaction will then take it’s course according the nature and complexity of the conveyancing in Bargoed.
Just acquired a detached house in Bargoed , how long will it take for the Land Registry to deal with the formalities evidencing my proprietorship? My Bargoed conveyancing solicitor works at snail pace, so I want to check the land registry aspects are dealt with.
As far as conveyancing in Bargoed registration is no quicker or slower than the rest of the country. As opposed to being determined by geographic area, timescales can differ subject to who lodges the application, whether there are errors and whether the Land registry must send notices to any interested persons or bodies. As of today roughly 80% of such applications are fully addressed within 12 days but some can be subject to longer hold-ups. Historically registration takes place after the buyer has moved in to the premises therefore 'speed' is not usually an essential issue but if it is urgent that the the registration takes place urgently then you or your lawyers could communicate with the Registry to express the reasoning for an expedited registration.
