My mortgage broker says he needs my Spital law firm’s panel member for the Santander conveyancing panel. What is the best way to discover this. I have e-mailed my local Spital office but they have not responded to me.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Spital lawyer . Most Spital conveyancing practices will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each lender.
The Spital conveyancing lawyers that I appointed last week on my purchase in Spital have without warning shut down. They were on acting for me because I needed a lawyer on the HSBC conveyancing panel and my previous Spital lawyer was not. I paid them money in advance. What should be my next steps?
If you have an estate agent involved then let them know straight away so that they advise the vendors that there may be a slight delay due to reasons beyond your control. Most sellers would be sympathetic and urge their lawyer to send a new set of papers to your new solicitors. You should appoint new lawyers that are on the HSBC conveyancing panel and notify the lender. If you have paid over any money, it will hopefully be held by the SRA as money in an intervened firm's bank accounts is transferred to the SRA. Then, the SRA or the intervention agent looks at the intervened firm's accounts to work out who the money belongs to. To claim your money you will need to contact the SRA. If the SRA cannot return money you are owed from the firm's bank accounts, or if they can only return part of the money, you can apply to the Compensation Fund for a grant. Your new lawyers may be able to assist.

My husband and I are novice buyers - agreed a price, yet the selling agent has warned us that the vendor will only proceed if we instruct the agent's recommended solicitors as they need a ‘quick sale’. Our preferred option is to instruct a local solicitor used to conveyancing in Spital
We suspect that the seller is unaware of this ultimatum. If they require ‘a quick sale', turning down a motivated buyer is not the way to achieve this. Speak to the vendors direct and make sure they comprehend that (a)you are keen to buy (b)you are excited to move forward, with mortgage lined up © you do not need to sell (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to instruct your own,trusted Spital conveyancing firm - not the ones that will provide their negotiator at the agency a commission or achieve conveyancing targets pre-set by senior management.
