BGW Law Limited is a recognised body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since January 2016 and recorded under SRA number 625272. The SRA record lists 3 practising offices: the head office at 57 High Street, Shepton Mallet, BA4 5AQ, plus 2 further offices in Cheddar and Castle Cary. It also trades as Bartlett Gooding Weelen and BGW 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 11 areas of law: Litigation, Residential property, Wills and trusts, Commercial property, Children, Family, Employment, Corporate (non-listed), Probate, Non-litigation and Landlord and tenant. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website, bgw-solicitors.co.uk, where its fees page has not yet been checked by this site.
The head office postcode BA4 5AQ falls within Somerset (South West), where the SRA register lists 79 authorised firms with a practising office, 44 of them reporting residential property work. The nearest other SRA-regulated firms by straight-line distance from the head office are Lyons Bowe Limited (same postcode, Shepton Mallet), Harris & Harris Legal Services LLP (7.1 km, Wells), Chubb Bulleid Limited (7.2 km, Wells), Drew & Co (8.3 km, Batcombe) and Purely Probate LTD (8.6 km, Glastonbury). 3 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.
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 BGW 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 bgw-solicitors.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.
