My wife and I have organised the release of further monies on our mortgage from RBS as we wish to conduct improvements to our home in Queenborough. Are we obliged to choose a bricks and mortar Queenborough solicitor on the RBS conveyancing panel to deal with the paperwork?
RBS would not normally appoint firms on their approved list of lawyers to deal with the formalities. If they do require any legal work then you would need to ensure that such a lawyer was on the RBS list.
I was told four weeks ago that my mortgage has been agreed to by Santander. Is it usual for Santander to only issue the offer once my solicitor in Queenborough is approved on their conveyancing panel? Santander have asked my solicitor to see a copy of their PI Insurance.
A lender would not issue a mortgage until they have details of a lawyer on their panel. It can take a few weeks for Santander to deal with your lawyer's application to be on the Santander conveyancing panel. There's no guarantee that your solicitor will be accepted.

I've recently found out that there is a flying freehold element on a property I have offered on last month in what was supposed to be a straight forward, no chain conveyancing. Queenborough is where the house is located. Can you shed any light on this issue?
Flying freeholds in Queenborough are unusual but are more likely to exist in relation to terraced houses. Even though you don't necessarily need a conveyancing solicitor in Queenborough you would need to get your solicitor to go through the deeds thoroughly. Your mortgage company may require your conveyancing solicitor to take out an indemnity policy. Some of the more diligent conveyancing solicitors in Queenborough may determine that this is not enough and that the deeds be re-written to give you the most up to date legal protection. If so, the next door neighbour also had to sign up to the revised deeds.It is possible that your lender will not accept the situation so the sooner you find out the better. You should also check with your insurance broker as to whether they will insure a flying freehold residence.
In what way can the Landlord & Tenant Act 1954 impact my business premises in Queenborough and how can your lawyers assist?
The particular law that you refer to provides protection to commercial tenants, giving them the right to make a request to court for a new lease and continue in occupation at the end of an expired lease. There are limited grounds that a landlord can refuse a lease renewal and the rules are complex. Fees are different for commercial conveyancing. Queenborough is one of the many locations in which our lawyers are based
