Am I correct in assuming that the fact that my solicitor in Eccleston and St Helens is not identified on my mortgage company's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the standard of his work?
It would not be wise to jump to that conclusion. There are plenty of plausible explanations. A recent report by the solicitors regulator revealed that over three quarters 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 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 simply call the Eccleston and St Helens conveyancing firm and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
