We are selling our apartment in Lytchett Matravers. Will my property lawyer have to be on the Lloyds conveyancing panel in order to deal with the discharge of my mortgage?
Ordinarily, even if your lawyer is not on the Lloyds conveyancing panel they can still act for you on your sale.

You should speak to your lawyer directly before you start the process though to ensure that there is no problem as lenders are changing their requirements fairly frequently currently.
