Laker Legal Solicitors LTD is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since May 2014 and recorded under SRA number 611612. The SRA record lists 7 practising offices: the head office at 2 Sir Thomas Storey House, Lancaster, LA1 5PE, plus 6 further offices in Preston, West Malling, Lancaster, Bath, Maidstone and York. It also trades as Laker Legal Solicitors. 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 8 areas of law: Wills and trusts, Litigation, Employment, Children, Family, Commercial property, Residential property and Probate. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website, lakerlegal.co.uk, where its fees page has not yet been checked by this site.
The head office postcode LA1 5PE falls within Lancaster (North West), where the SRA register lists 20 authorised firms with a practising office, 13 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Oglethorpe Sturton & Gillibrand LLP (400 m, Lancaster), Holdens Law Ltd (500 m, Lancaster), Symmetry Law Limited (500 m, Lancaster), Joseph A Jones & Co LLP (500 m, Lancaster) and Clarkson Hirst Solicitors Limited (500 m, Lancaster). 4 of those 5 report residential property work.
The SRA record carries no company registration number for this firm even though its constitution is recorded as incorporated company (limited by shares), so no Companies House record is cross-referenced.
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 Laker Legal Solicitors LTD 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 lakerlegal.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.
