It has come to my attention via my mortgage adviser that my Kelsall the law firm I have appointed is not on the lender Solicitor panel. How can I be certain that this is indeed the case?

What happens if my lawyer’s firm is suspended from the Barclays Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Kelsall?
The first thing to point out is that, this is very unlikely to happen. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.
