Julian Dobson is a recognised sole practice authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2015 and recorded under SRA number 330207. The SRA record lists 1 practising office: the head office at 1 Frederick Terrace, Brighton, BN1 1AX. Its constitution is recorded as sole practitioner.
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 3 areas of law: Litigation, Residential property and Non-litigation. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; the check of juliandobson.com on 28 August 2026 did not find a published conveyancing price page, so ask the firm for the figures the rules require.
The head office postcode BN1 1AX falls within Brighton and Hove (South East), where the SRA register lists 74 authorised firms with a practising office, 34 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Helix Law Limited (100 m, Brighton), Irving Legal LTD (200 m, Brighton), James & Co Solicitors LLP (200 m, Brighton), Komodo Law Limited (300 m, Brighton) and Kellys Solicitors (Brighton) LTD (400 m, Brighton). 1 of those 5 reports residential property work.
The SRA records the firm's constitution as sole practitioner, a structure with no Companies House registration, so there is no company record to cross-reference; the SRA authorisation record is the only public register entry for the firm.
For a home purchase in Brighton, this site's verified conveyancing legal fee range is £850 to £2,150 plus VAT, before disbursements such as searches and the Land Registry fee. Read the firm's published prices against that band rather than the headline figure alone.

Areas of law reported to the SRA
Self-reported by the firm in its most recent annual return to the SRA ("the areas of law that the law firm has told us they delivered"). A lagging description of past work, not a live service list, a specialism claim or a quality mark; it may be up to a year old and is blank for newly authorised firms.
Because Julian Dobson reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Our check on 28 August 2026 did not find a conveyancing price page. Look for a fees page at juliandobson.com or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the verified Brighton band of £850 to £2,150 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
