I can't travel far from Frenchay Common. I would like to know the logic why all Frenchay Common conveyancers are not on all bank panels?
Even though it may seem unfair for lenders to restrict who can represent them, from the public’s or solicitor’s perspective, the flip side is that lenders are becoming ever more anxious and feel it crucial to shield themselves from illegal activities. As a consequence of this concern mortgage companies are limiting their conveyancing panel to a size that they are happy to control.

we are a couple who are purchasing a purpose built flat in Frenchay Common with a homeloan from Aldermore.We like our Frenchay Common conveyancing lawyer but Aldermore advised that she’s not listed on their "panel". It seems we have no choice but to instruct a Aldermore panel solicitor or retain our high street solicitor and fork out for a Aldermore panel lawyer to represent them. We feel as though this is unjust; is there anything we can do?
No, not really. The loan issued to you is subject to its various provisions, one of which will be that lawyers must be on the Aldermore conveyancing panel. Until recently, most lenders had large numbers of solicitors on their panels: a borrower could find 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. A further alternative is for your solicitors to apply to be on the conveyancing panel for Aldermore
