Michael Taylor & Co is a recognised sole practice authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2015 and recorded under SRA number 76152. The SRA record lists 2 practising offices: the head office at Fern Acre House, Manchester, M41 0TQ, plus 1 further office in Bolton. Its constitution is recorded as sole practitioner.
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 5 areas of law: Probate, Residential property, Family, Commercial property and Personal Injury. 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 michaeltaylorandcosolicitors.com on 28 August 2026, although the automated check could not confirm that it covers conveyancing.
The head office postcode M41 0TQ falls within Trafford (North West), where the SRA register lists 79 authorised firms with a practising office, 36 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Leech & Co Solicitors Limited (400 m, Manchester), Connery Legal LTD (500 m, Manchester), Ralli Limited (3.2 km, Sale), Slater Heelis Limited (3.2 km, Sale) and Bannister Preston Solicitors LLP (3.3 km, Sale). 2 of those 5 report residential property work.
The SRA records the firm's constitution as sole practitioner, a structure with no Companies House registration, so there is no company record to cross-reference; the SRA authorisation record is the only public register entry for the firm.
Across England and Wales this site's verified conveyancing legal fee for a purchase averages £1,575 (range £1,200 to £2,500) plus VAT, before disbursements. 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 Michael Taylor & Co 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 michaeltaylorandcosolicitors.com 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.
