The Wilkes Partnership LLP is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2011 and recorded under SRA number 562799. The SRA record lists 4 practising offices: the head office at 41 Church Street, Birmingham, B3 2RT, plus 3 further offices in Birmingham and Solihull. It also trades as Williamson & Soden (Practising Style for The Wilkes Partnership LLP), Carvers (Practising style for The Wilkes Partnership LLP), The Wilkes Partnership and Wilkes. Its constitution is recorded as limited liability partnership.
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 14 areas of law: Planning, Wills and trusts, Immigration, Commercial property, Landlord and tenant, Family, Probate, Residential property, Non-litigation, Employment, Corporate (non-listed), Litigation, Personal Injury and Children. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; the automated check on 28 August 2026 could not read wilkes.co.uk, so look for a fees page there or ask the firm.
The head office postcode B3 2RT falls within Birmingham (West Midlands), where the SRA register lists 406 authorised firms with a practising office, 149 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 The Wilkes Partnership LLP 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 wilkes.co.uk or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the verified Birmingham band of £700 to £1,700 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
