Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a bank your lawyer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook.

Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Hathern conveyancing searches.
