I can't travel far from North Baddesley. I would like to know the reason why all North Baddesley lawyers are not on all mortgage company panels?
Before the recession most mortgage companies displayed an approach to risk which is different than today. The FSA in 2010 conducted a thematic review into mortgage fraud which in summary warned lenders: know the conveyancing practitioners on your panel. Consequently, lenders have since looked to extract more data from law firms concerning their processes and the staff who work for them and set certain criteria such as completing a minimum amount of transactions. Hundreds of law practices have found themselves removed from lender panels even though they had 100% healthy disciplinary record, no complaints and zero claims and didn't just 'dabble' in conveyancing. Many firms were never going to meet the minimum amount of transactions the mortgage companies set.
Can you clarify what the consequences are if my lawyer’s firm is expelled from the Leeds Building Society Solicitor panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in North Baddesley?
The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. 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 for a fee.

I am in need of some leasehold conveyancing in North Baddesley. Before I get started I require certainty as to the number of years remaining on the lease.
Assuming the lease is registered - and 99.9% are in North Baddesley - then the leasehold title will always include the short particulars of the lease, namely the date; the term; and the original parties. From a conveyancing perspective such details then enable any prospective buyer and lender to confirm that any lease they are looking at is the one relevant to that title. For any other purpose, such as confirming how long the term was granted for and calculating what is left, then the register should be sufficient on it's own.
