HCB Legal Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since March 2019 and recorded under SRA number 656840. The SRA record lists 3 practising offices: the head office at Cornwall Buildings, Birmingham, B3 3QR, plus 2 further offices in Tunbridge Wells and Eastbourne. It also trades as HCB Solicitors. 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 3 areas of law: Commercial property, Residential property and Litigation. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; the check of hcbgroup.com on 28 August 2026 did not find a published conveyancing price page, so ask the firm for the figures the rules require.
The head office postcode B3 3QR falls within Birmingham (West Midlands), where the SRA register lists 406 authorised firms with a practising office, 149 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Neate & Pugh Solicitors Limited (same postcode, Birmingham), Tranter Mills Solicitors Limited (same postcode, Birmingham), Kang & Co Solicitors Limited (same postcode, Birmingham), Taj Law Ltd (same postcode, Birmingham) and MI Solicitors Limited (same postcode, Birmingham). 0 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 Birmingham, this site's verified conveyancing legal fee range is £700 to £1,700 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 HCB Legal Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Our check on 28 August 2026 did not find a conveyancing price page. Look for a fees page at hcbgroup.com or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the verified Birmingham band of £700 to £1,700 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
