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 Forster Dean Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Look for a fees page at forsterdean.co.uk or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the national average of £1,575 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
