Leading Property Lawyers Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since May 2019 and recorded under SRA number 658171. The SRA record lists 1 practising office: the head office at 5th Floor, Delphian House, Riverside, Manchester, M3 5FS. It also trades as Read Roper and Read Solicitors and LPL. 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 7 areas of law: Wills and trusts, Probate, Litigation, Landlord and tenant, Family, Residential property and Commercial property. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; a conveyancing price page was found at leadingpropertylawyers.co.uk on 28 August 2026.
The head office postcode M3 5FS falls within Salford (North West), where the SRA register lists 65 authorised firms with a practising office, 26 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are H A S Jones Limited (200 m, Salford), Monarch Solicitors LTD (200 m, Manchester), Veritas Lex Limited (300 m, Manchester), Veritas Solicitors LLP (300 m, Manchester) and Barings Limited (300 m, Manchester). 2 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 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 Leading Property Lawyers Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Read them at leadingpropertylawyers.co.uk (conveyancing price page located 28 August 2026). Compare against the verified Manchester band of £700 to £1,800 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
