I am not well enough to travel far from Wombourne. I would like to know the understand why all Wombourne property lawyers aren't included on all mortgage company panels?

Lenders normally restrict either the type or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such restriction(s) being that the practice is required to have at least two partners. As well as restricting the type of firm, some building societies decided to restrict the number of organisations they use to act for them. You should note that lenders have no responsibility for the standard of advice supplied by any Wombourne property lawyer on their approved list. Property fraud was a key driver in the reduction of solicitor panels from 2008 even though there are differing views about the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Statistics via HMLR reveal that thousands of conveyancing firms only conduct less than three conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel pruning question why conveyancing firms deserve any entitlement to remain on a conveyancing panel when it is apparent that conveyancing is not their primary expertise?
