I am in the process of mortgaging my flat in Woolton, does my lawyer need to be on the Principality Conveyancing panel?
In theory, you could use a solicitor that is not on the Principality conveyancing panel, but Principality would require one of their panel solicitors to be instructed to act in their interests, and you'd have to pay for this - so most people instruct a panel solicitor. It's also easier, as otherwise you'd have to deal with two solicitors for the same conveyancing matter.

As is the case with many service providers, often recommendations from connections can be worth their weight in gold. Nevertheless there are lots of players in a conveyancing deal; estate agents, mortgage brokers and banks may recommend conveyancers to use. Sometimes the lawyers might be known to one of the organisations as being good in their field, but sometimes there might be a commercial relationship behind the endorsement. You are free to choose your preferred conveyancer. Don't forget that some lenders specify a panel list of solicitors you must use for the lender aspect of your house move.
