Davis Blank Furniss LLP is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since February 2018 and recorded under SRA number 646240. The SRA record lists 2 practising offices: the head office at The Apiary, Manchester, M3 2ER, plus 1 further office in Glossop. It also trades as Davis Blank Furniss. Its constitution is recorded as limited liability partnership.
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 10 areas of law: Landlord and tenant, Family, Wills and trusts, Employment, Corporate (non-listed), Litigation, Personal Injury, Commercial property, Probate and Residential property. 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 dbf-law.co.uk on 28 August 2026, although the automated check could not confirm that it covers conveyancing.
The head office postcode M3 2ER falls within Manchester (North West), where the SRA register lists 406 authorised firms with a practising office, 120 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Kuit Steinart Levy LLP (100 m, Manchester), TDS Law Limited (100 m, Manchester), Millars Solicitors LTD (100 m, Manchester), Richardson Hartley Law LTD. (100 m, Manchester) and Veritas Lex Limited (100 m, Manchester). 1 of those 5 reports residential property work.
The SRA record carries no company registration number for this firm even though its constitution is recorded as limited liability partnership, so no Companies House record is cross-referenced.
For a home purchase in Manchester, this site's verified conveyancing legal fee range is £700 to £1,800 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.

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 Davis Blank Furniss 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 dbf-law.co.uk or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the verified Manchester band of £700 to £1,800 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
