We previously selected conveyancing lawyers based in Whitechapel on the RBS solicitor approved list. They are now charging me a further sum for handling the RBS mortgage. Is this a supplemental conveyancing fee set by RBS?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your conveyancing practitioner is entitled to charge a fee for this. This charge is not set by RBS but by your Whitechapel conveyancing practitioner. Some firms on the RBS panel will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee but plenty of firms include it on their overall fee.
We were going to get a OIP from Skipton this week so we know how much we could potentially offer as otherwise we are dependent on web based calculators (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Skipton recommend any Whitechapel solicitors on the Skipton conveyancing panel, or is it better to go independently?
You will need to appoint Whitechapel solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Skipton conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Skipton through the process.
The deeds to my house are lost. The solicitors who handled the conveyancing in Whitechapel 10 years ago no longer exist. What do I do?
Nowadays there are copies made of almost everything, and your solicitor should know precisely where to locate all the appropriate documentation so you may buy or dispose of your house without any difficulty. Where copies can’t be found, your solicitor can put in place insurance or indemnities against possible claims on your premises.

My husband and I are first time buyers - agreed a price, yet the agent informed us that the seller will only proceed if we appoint the agent's chosen lawyers as they want a ‘quick sale’. We would rather use a high street conveyancer used to conveyancing in Whitechapel
It is improbable the sellers are driving this. Should the seller desire ‘a quick sale', turning down a serious purchaser is is going to put the whole deal at risk. Speak to the owners direct and explain that (a)you are serious purchasers (b)you are ready to go, with finances in place © you are unencumbered (d) you intend to proceed fast (e)however you will continue to use your preferred Whitechapel conveyancing lawyers - not the ones that will give the estate agent a introducer fee or hit his conveyancing targets pre-set by HQ.
