Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Grimsby

Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Grimsby is not on my bank's conveyancing panel that there is a problem with the standard of her conveyancing?

It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are all sorts of perfectly plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Where you are concerned you should contact the Grimsby conveyancing firm and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
