We wanted to use a property lawyer in Cheltenham for our house move. Our financial adviser informed us that our mortgage company Alliance & Leicester won't deal with them. Surely this is unduly restrictive?
Banks normally restrict either the type or the volume of conveyancing practices on their panel. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must have two or more partners. As well as restricting the profile of firm, some have limited the amount of firms they allow to represent them. Be aware that Alliance & Leicester have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Alliance & Leicester Conveyancer Panel.

I am 17 days into a residential purchase having been directed to conveyancers by the local agent to execute conveyancing in Cheltenham. I am not happy. Can you help me find new solicitors?
