Please help. My Knightsbridge lawyer is advising me that he is legally obliged toconduct Knightsbridge conveyancing searches becausethe firm are on the Nat Westconveyancing panel. Is my conveyancer correct?
You have limited options available to you. Given that you are taking out a loan with a mortgage company your conveyancer has to comply with their conditions as set out in their version of the CML Conveyancing Handbook. Your property lawyer would have previously signed the Terms and Conditions of your lender’s conveyancing panel appointment which obliges them to follow the CML Handbook requirements . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Knightsbridge conveyancing searches.

A solicitor would have to be very bad to suggest changing them. Has the loan offer been generated? In the event that it has you need to inform them of the new contact details and have the mortgage documents are issued to the new lawyers.
