I had intended to instruct a property lawyer in Colsterworth for our home move. Our financial adviser has since notified us that our mortgage lenders Lloyds TSB Bank won't deal with them. Why is this not regarded as unfair competition?

Mortgage Companies in the main restrict either the category or the volume of conveyancing solicitors on their approved list of lawyers. A common example of such restriction(s) being that a firm must not be a sole practitioner. In addition to restricting the type of firm, a few banks have reduced the amount of firms they use to represent them. Be aware that Lloyds TSB Bank have no responsibility for the quality of advice provided by any member of Lloyds TSB Bank Conveyancer Panel.
