I can't travel far from Eaton Bray. I would like to know the reason why all Eaton Bray solicitors are not on all bank panels?
Banks point to the fact that solicitor-led fraud is considered to be responsible for millions of pounds of fraud annually.The elimination of law firms off of lender panels started with the rise in mortgage fraud, which prompted a thematic review by the FSA in 2011. Its outcome included recommendations for lenders to review their conveyancing panels, which kicked off a major policy change in the sector. It led to banks and building societies culling less reputable firms off their books of approved conveyancing practitioners .
