Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Litherland

I am selling my apartment in Litherland and the estate agent has just e-mailed to warn that the purchasers are changing their conveyancer. The reason given is that the bank will only work with solicitors on their approved list. On what basis would a major lender only work with specific solicitors rather the firm that they want to appoint to handle their conveyancing in Litherland ?

Banks have always had an approved set of law firms that can represent them, but in recent years big names such as Santander, have considered and reduced their conveyancing panel– in some cases removing conveyancing firms who have represented them for more than 15 years.

Lenders blame a rise in fraud by way of justification for the pruning – criteria have been tightened as a smaller panel is easier to keep an eye on. No lender will say how many solicitors have been dropped, claiming the information is commercially sensitive, but the Law Society says it is being contacted daily by practices that have been removed from panels. Plenty of firms are unaware that they have been dropped until contacted by a borrower who has instructed them as might be the situation in your buyers' case. Your purchasers are unlikely to have any impact on this.
