My Solicitor in Hoddesdon has never been on on the National Westminster Bank Conveyancing Panel. Can I still use my family solicitor even though they are not on the National Westminster Bank list of approved lawyers?

- Get a new practitioner to act in the conveyancing, remembering to check they are National Westminster Bank approved.

The register of title is a public document, so HM Land Registry would be breaching their statutory duty if they did not grant access to the register.
In essence you can make a request of HMLR to hide the amount paid data but the answer would be in the negative.
