HCB Widdows Mason Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2013 and recorded under SRA number 606836. The SRA record lists 4 practising offices: the head office at Unit 4 Ashtree Court, Cardiff, CF23 8RW, plus 3 further offices in Aberdare, Bristol and Swansea. The register carries 1 previous name, most recently Widdows Mason 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: Probate, Commercial property, Residential property, Litigation 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; the check of hcbgroup.com 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 CF23 8RW falls within Cardiff (Wales), where the SRA register lists 142 authorised firms with a practising office, 64 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 HCB Widdows Mason Limited 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 hcbgroup.com or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the verified Cardiff band of £650 to £1,600 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
