Please explain the implications if my lawyer’s firm is expelled from the Principality Conveyancing panel ahead of completing my conveyancing in Copmanthorpe?

The first thing to point out is that, this is a very rare occurrence. In most cases even where a law firm is removed off of a panel the lender would allow the completion to go ahead as the lender would appreciate the difficulties that they would place you in if you have to instruct a new solicitor days before completion. In a worst case scenario where the lender insists that you instruct a new firm then it is possible for a very good lawyer to expedite the conveyancing albeit that you may pay a significant premium for this. The analogous situation is where a buyer instructs a lawyer, exchanges contracts and the law firm is shut down by a regulator such as the SRA. Again, in this situation you can find lawyers who can troubleshoot their way to bring the conveyancing to a satisfactory conclusion - albeit at a cost.

I decided to have a survey completed on a house in Copmanthorpe before retaining conveyancers. I have been informed that there is a flying freehold element to the house. The surveyor advised that some mortgage companies may not give a loan on such a property.

My wife and I are purchasing a garden flat in Copmanthorpe. When we first instructed solicitor, they said that they were on all major UK bank panels. The mortgage broker emailed today to advise that they are not on the Clydesdale approved list. If it turns out to be true, what should we do? Do we simply choose a new solicitor that is on their panel or do we cover the costs for separate representation, with Clydesdale selecting their own approved solicitor.

When purchasing a property with the benefit of a mortgage it is normal for the purchaser’s lawyers to also act for the purchaser's lender. In order to act for a bank or building society a lawyer has to be on that lender's conveyancing panel. An application has to be made by the conveyancer to the lender to become a member of the lender's panel and there are increasingly strict conditions which the property lawyer has to fulfill. Some mortgage companies now insist their panel firms to be part of the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme. Your property lawyer should call Clydesdale and see 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 Clydesdale's conveyancing panel as you are at liberty to use your preferred Copmanthorpe lawyers, in which case your legal fees may increase, and it will likely delay the transaction as you have another set of people involved.
