Napthens LLP is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2011 and recorded under SRA number 462103. The SRA record lists 7 practising offices: the head office at 7 Winckley Square, Preston, PR1 3JD, plus 6 further offices in Blackburn, Southport, Liverpool, Kendal, Lytham St. Annes and Manchester. Its constitution is recorded as limited liability partnership.
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 8 areas of law: Wills and trusts, Residential property, Employment, Litigation, Commercial property, Corporate (non-listed), Family and Landlord and tenant. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; a conveyancing price page was found at napthens.co.uk on 28 August 2026.
The head office postcode PR1 3JD falls within Preston (North West), where the SRA register lists 54 authorised firms with a practising office, 22 of them reporting residential property work.

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 Napthens LLP reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Read them at napthens.co.uk (conveyancing price page located 28 August 2026). Compare against the national average of £1,575 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
