Smiths (Solicitors) LLP is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since July 2017 and recorded under SRA number 639865. The SRA record lists 5 practising offices: the head office at Norman House, Derby, DE1 1NU, plus 4 further offices in Leicester, Burton-On-Trent, Swadlincote and Stoke on Trent. It also trades as Smith Partnership. 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: Personal Injury, Family, Landlord and tenant, Employment, Commercial property, Criminal, Probate, Corporate (non-listed), Wills and trusts, Residential property, Litigation and Children. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; a pricing page was found on smithpartnership.co.uk on 28 August 2026, although the automated check could not confirm that it covers conveyancing.
The head office postcode DE1 1NU falls within Derby (East Midlands), where the SRA register lists 51 authorised firms with a practising office, 22 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 Smiths (Solicitors) LLP reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. A pricing page was found on 28 August 2026 but its conveyancing scope is unconfirmed. Look for a fees page at smithpartnership.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.
