The SRA record lists 1 practising office: the head office at Britannic Chambers PO Box 4, Houghton le Spring, DH4 4AJ. It also trades as Sherwood-Smith Tilley and Co. 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: Employment, Commercial property, Probate, Residential property 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, sherwood-smithtilleyandco.co.uk, where its fees page has not yet been checked by this site.
The head office postcode DH4 4AJ falls within Sunderland (North East), where the SRA register lists 31 authorised firms with a practising office, 21 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 G Tilley Law 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 sherwood-smithtilleyandco.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.
