Whitefields (Bidco) Limited is a licensed body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since April 2021 and recorded under SRA number 382069. The SRA record lists 1 practising office: the head office at 6A Hove Park Villas, Hove, BN3 6HW. The register carries 1 previous name, most recently Act Conveyancing LTD. Its constitution is recorded as incorporated company (limited by shares).
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 5 areas of law: Wills and trusts, Corporate (non-listed), Residential property, Probate and Commercial property. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; as the register lists no website for this firm, the rules say the information must be available on request.
The head office postcode BN3 6HW 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 recLAW LLP (100 m, Hove), Bishop & Light Solicitors Limited (400 m, Hove), O'Sullivan Family Law LTD (500 m, Hove), Brighton and Hove Law Limited (800 m, Brighton) and Goodlaw Solicitors LLP (900 m, Hove). 1 of those 5 reports residential property work.
Companies House records the firm as WHITEFIELDS (BIDCO) LIMITED (company number 04449603), a private limited company incorporated on 28 May 2002, 24 years before this snapshot. Its status on the Companies House bulk file dated 1 May 2026 is "Active". Companies House also lists 1 earlier registered name, most recently ACT LEGAL LTD.. The registered office town is LONDON, which differs from the practising head office town.
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 Whitefields (Bidco) Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. The SRA record lists no website, so ask the firm for the same information in writing; the rules require it on request. Compare against the verified Brighton band of £850 to £2,150 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
