The SRA record lists 1 practising office: the head office at Cumberland House, Southend-On-Sea, SS2 6HZ. Its constitution is recorded as limited liability partnership.

In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 12 areas of law: Residential property, Corporate (non-listed), Children, Employment, Landlord and tenant, Probate, Non-litigation, Personal Injury, Litigation, Commercial property, Family and Wills and trusts. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website, drysdales-solicitors.co.uk, where its fees page has not yet been checked by this site.

The head office postcode SS2 6HZ falls within Southend-on-Sea (East of England), where the SRA register lists 36 authorised firms with a practising office, 18 of them reporting residential property work.

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").

Conveyancing prices: published by the firm under SRA Transparency Rule 1

Look for a fees page at drysdales-solicitors.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.
