Conveyancing prices: published by the firm under SRA Transparency Rule 1

Because Hay & Kilner 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. The prices shown above, read 16 October 2026 from the firm's website, are for other services and do not include conveyancing. For conveyancing, ask the firm for a written quote. Compare against the verified Newcastle band of £600 to £1,500 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
