Bate & Albon Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since April 2015 and recorded under SRA number 618095. The SRA record lists 5 practising offices: the head office at 23-24 Marlborough Place, Brighton, BN1 1UB, plus 4 further offices in Worthing, Chichester, Eastbourne and Lewes. It also trades as Bate & Albon Solicitors. The register carries 1 previous name, most recently Bate & Co 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 7 areas of law: Family, Commercial property, Landlord and tenant, Residential property, Probate, Wills and trusts and Litigation. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; a conveyancing price page was found at batealbonsolicitors.co.uk on 28 August 2026 with a fee table.

The head office postcode BN1 1UB falls within Brighton and Hove (South East), where the SRA register lists 74 authorised firms with a practising office, 34 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are M S Solicitors Limited (same postcode, Brighton), Spearpoint Franks Solicitors LTD (200 m, Brighton), Odt Professional Limited (200 m, Brighton), Edward Harte (Brighton) Limited (200 m, Brighton) and Martin Cray & Co (300 m, Brighton). 2 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.

For a home purchase in Brighton, this site's verified conveyancing legal fee range is £850 to £2,150 plus VAT, before disbursements such as searches and the Land Registry fee. Read the firm's published prices against that band rather than the headline figure alone.

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.

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

Because Bate & Albon Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Read them at batealbonsolicitors.co.uk (conveyancing price page located 28 August 2026, with a fee table). Compare against the verified Brighton band of £850 to £2,150 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
