We note that you have a post code search directory listing law firms on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Do firms pay you a referral fee if I retain them for our own conveyancing in Worcester Park?

Can you clarify what the consequences are if my solicitor is expelled from the Principality Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Worcester Park?

The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit for a fee.
