Recently asked questions about conveyancing in Partington

Is the fact that my conveyancer in Partington is not on my lender's solicitor panel that there is a problem with the quality of her work?

That would more than likely be an incorrect assumption to make. There are all sorts of perfectly reasonable explanations. Just recently a report by the solicitors regulator revealed 76% 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. If you are concerned you should contact the Partington conveyancing practice and enquire why they are no longer on the approved list for your bank.
