Browell Smith & Co Solicitors LTD is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2011 and recorded under SRA number 545141. The SRA record lists 4 practising offices: the head office at Unit 42-44, Cramlington, NE23 7BF, plus 3 further offices in Ashington, Newcastle Upon Tyne and Sunderland. The register carries 1 previous name, most recently Browell Limited. 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: Residential property, Personal Injury, Probate, Wills and trusts and Family. 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 browells.co.uk 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 NE23 7BF falls within Northumberland (North East), where the SRA register lists 39 authorised firms with a practising office, 25 of them reporting residential property work.

Its status on the Companies House bulk file dated 1 May 2026 is "Active". Companies House also lists 1 earlier registered name, most recently BROWELL LIMITED. The registered office town is NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, which differs from the practising head office town.
Across England and Wales this site's verified conveyancing legal fee for a purchase averages £1,575 (range £1,200 to £2,500) plus VAT, before disbursements. 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 Browell Smith & Co Solicitors LTD 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 browells.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.
