SRA firms in Bristol

Watkins Solicitors is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2011 and recorded under SRA number 388812. The SRA record lists 5 practising offices: the head office at 192 North Street, Bristol, BS3 1JF, plus 4 further offices in Bath, Bristol, Hereford and Evesham. It also trades as Watkins Solicitors Incorporating Brain Sinnott & Co. Its constitution is recorded as partnership.

In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 7 areas of law: Residential property, Wills and trusts, Litigation, Probate, Children, Family 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; a pricing page was found on watkinssolicitors.co.uk on 28 August 2026, although the automated check could not confirm that it covers conveyancing.

The head office postcode BS3 1JF falls within Bristol (South West), where the SRA register lists 151 authorised firms with a practising office, 51 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Peter Burrows & Co (same postcode, Bristol), Barcan Woodward (500 m, Bristol), Roxburgh Milkins Limited (1.2 km, Bristol), Sansbury Douglas (1.4 km, Bristol) and Veale Wasbrough Executor and Trustee Company (1.4 km, Bristol). 1 of those 5 reports residential property work.

The SRA records the firm's constitution as partnership, 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 Bristol, this site's verified conveyancing legal fee range is £750 to £1,850 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.
