Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) lack 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. Should you be concerned you should simply call the Hengoed conveyancing practice and ask them why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.

My husband and I are novice buyers - had an offer accepted, yet the estate agent told us that the vendor will only proceed if we appoint their chosen solicitors as they are insisting on an ‘expedited deal’.

Bypass the agents and go straight to the sellers and make the point that (a)you are genuine buyers (b)you are excited to move forward, with finances arranged © you do not need to sell (d) you wish to move quickly (e)however you are going to instruct your own,trusted Hengoed conveyancing firm - as opposed tothe ones that will earn the negotiator at the agency a kickback or hit his conveyancing thresholds set by HQ.

My wife and I have recently appointed a conveyancing solicitor in Hengoed. I need to find out if they are listed on the lender's approved list of lawyers. Can you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?
