Is the fact that my conveyancer in Tremeirchion is not on my bank's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of his conveyancing?
That would most likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% of law firms surveyed had been removed from at least one lender panel. The most common reasons for removal are: (1) low volume of transactions (2) the solicitor is a sole practitioner (3) as part of the HSBC panel reduction (4) regulatory contact by SRA (5) accidental removal. If you are concerned you should contact the Tremeirchion conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your mortgage company.
