We are buying a newly converted flat in Cannington with a mortgage from Aldermore.We would like to retain our Cannington conveyancing solicitor but Aldermore advised that she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we have little choice but to instruct a Aldermore panel lawyer or retain our preferred solicitor and pay for one of their panel ones to act for them. We feel as though this is unjust; Can we not simply insist that Aldermore use our lawyer?
No, not really. The home loan issued to you contains terms and conditions, a common one being that solicitors must be on the Aldermore solicitor panel. in the past, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could choose one for themselves, as long as it was on the lender's panel. The lender would then simply instruct the borrower's lawyers to act for the lender, too. You can use your lender's panel lawyers or you could borrow from another lender which does not restrict your choice. Another option that might be available is for your lawyer to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Aldermore
