Watson Woodhouse Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since August 2017 and recorded under SRA number 640409. The SRA record lists 8 practising offices: the head office at Newham House, Middlesbrough, TS1 2HJ, plus 7 further offices in Middlesbrough, Harrogate, Darlington, Stockton-on-Tees, Redcar and Durham. 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: Non-litigation, Residential property, Mental Health, Family, Litigation, Criminal, Personal Injury and Landlord and tenant. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website, watsonwoodhouse.co.uk, where its fees page has not yet been checked by this site.

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 Watson Woodhouse Limited 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 watsonwoodhouse.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.
