I selected a Bowthorpe based lawyer for my conveyancing in Bowthorpe today. Reviewing the Terms I seewe are on the hook for charges even where the conveyance does not complete. Should I go with them or appoint a web based lawyer advertising no completion no cost conveyancing in Bowthorpe?
Generally there is a compromise along the lines that if "No Completion No Fee" is available then the conveyancing charges will tend to be be uplifted to neutralise those transactions that do not go ahead. Please beware that these arrangements generally do not cover expenses for example Bowthorpe conveyancing search fees.

My husband and I are acquiring a 2 bedroom flat in Bowthorpe. At the time of instructing our property lawyer, we were told they were on all major UK bank panels. Our financial adviser called yesterday to advise that they don't appear to be on the Yorkshire BS approved list. Were it to be true, what should we do? Should we simply find a different property lawyer that is on their approved list or should we cover the costs for dual representation, with Yorkshire BS appointing their own preferred conveyancer.
When buying a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is conventional for the purchaser’s lawyers to also represent the mortgage company. In order to act for a bank or building society a conveyancer has to be on that lender's list of approved lawyers. An application has to be made by the property lawyer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict criteria which the property lawyer has to fulfill. Some building societies now require their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your conveyancer should call Yorkshire BS to discover if they can apply for membership of their conveyancing panel, but if that is not viable they will instruct their own solicitors to act. You are not legally obliged to appoint a law firm on Yorkshire BS's conveyancing panel and you may continue to use your own Bowthorpe solicitors, in which case it will likely add costs, and it may delay matters as you have another set of people involved.
