We wanted to use a property lawyer in Burry Port for our house purchase. Our financial adviser informed us that our mortgage company Britannia won't deal with them. Why is this not regarded as unduly restrictive?
Lenders normally restrict either the category or the volume of conveyancing firms on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such criteria being that a firm must have two or more partners. In addition to restricting the type of firm, some have limited the number of solicitor practices they permit to act for them. Be aware that Britannia have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Britannia Conveyancer Panel. Mortgage fraud was a primary driver in the rationalisation of solicitor panels since 2008 even though there are mixed opinions regarding the extent of solicitor engagement in some of that fraud. Statistics from the Land Registry indicate that thousands of law firms, including some in or near Burry Port only carry out very few conveyances per annum.
