My partner and I are buying a 2 bedroom flat in Stanford Le Hope. At the point of instructing our lawyer, they assured us that they were on all mainstream mortgage company panels. Our financial adviser emailed just now to advise that they don't appear to be on the Nottingham approved list. Should that be true, what should we do? Should we just choose a different conveyancer that is on their panel or do we pay for dual representation, with Nottingham selecting their own approved solicitor.

If you are purchasing a property with the assistance of a mortgage it is normal for the buyer’s solicitors to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancer has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the lawyer has to satisfy. Some building societies now require their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Accreditation Scheme. Your property lawyer should contact Nottingham and see if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on Nottingham's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Stanford Le Hope lawyers, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it may delay matters as you are adding another conveyancer into the mix.
