Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Tenbury Wells is not identified on my mortgage company's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of her work?

It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator indicated 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The top 5 reasons are as follows: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the lawyer is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. Should you be concerned you should contact the Tenbury Wells conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
