Our financial adviser called just now to advise that they are not on the Barclays approved list. Should that be true, what should we do? Should we simply pick a new lawyer that is on their panel or do we pay for separate representation, with Barclays selecting their own approved property lawyer.

When acquiring a property with mortgage finance it is standard for the buyer’s lawyers to also act for the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a solicitor has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the conveyancing practitioner to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the conveyancer has to meet. Some building societies now insist their panel members to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your conveyancer should contact Barclays to discover if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own lawyers to represent them. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on Barclays's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Maxton lawyers, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.
