Unfortunately I am unable to travel far from Hartlebury. I would like to know the logic why all Hartlebury property lawyers aren't included on all bank panels?
Banks ordinarily impose restrictions on either the nature or the number of conveyancing solicitors on their panel. A common example of such criteria being that the firm is required to have two or more partners. As well as restricting the structure of firm, some lenders made a decision to limit the number of organisations they permit to act for them. You should note that lenders have no liability for the accuracy of advice supplied by any Hartlebury property lawyer on their approved list. Increases in mortgage fraud was a key driver in the rationalisation of solicitor panels from 2008 notwithstanding that there are conflicting points of view concerning the extent of solicitor involvement in some of that fraud. Data via HMLR exposes that thousands of law firms only conduct a couple of conveyances a year. Those advocating conveyancing panel pruning question why conveyancing firms deserve the right to remain on a lender panel when it is apparent that conveyancing is not their primary expertise?

My lawyer in Hartlebury is asking me for proof of ID documents stating that this forms part of his obligations as a solicitor on the bank Solicitor panel. Can this be correct?
Due to Money Laundering Regulations your conveyancing lawyer is duty bound to confirm positively your identification when entering into a business relationship with you. It is a criminal offence if your lawyer not do this. If you do not provide ID early in the transaction the solicitor must refuse to act for you. It’s unlikely a lawyer will turn you away if you come to the first meeting without relevant ID but you will have to produce it at some point so you might as well bring it with you to the initial meeting so the lawyer can tick the ID verification box and start sorting out the conveyancing straight away. If you are getting a mortgage, your lawyer also has to check ID documents to satisfy the bank. This is not unique to conveyancing in Hartlebury
