Please help. My Teddington lawyer is advising me that he is legally obliged toconduct Teddington conveyancing searches resulting from the fact thatthe firm are on the Nat Westapproved lawyer panel. Do I not have a choice here?
Unfortunately both you and your lawyer have little choice here. Given that you are taking out a loan with a bank your conveyancing practitioner 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 specifications . Even if you were a cash buyer you would be ill advised not to carry out Teddington conveyancing searches.

You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold premises.
