Interestingly out of the 5 I spoke to, only 1 asked me about my nationality, which is British. I can't help but think there is an element of covert racism
Hopefully just busyness / laziness rather than racism / xenophobia. Conveyancing is a low earner for solicitors so busy/lazy ones could well just look to screen out anyone that looks like they might be a slightly complicated client. The penalties and faff of being done for not following money laundering checks are significant.
