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 Ferns reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. This firm's published conveyancing prices are shown above, read 16 October 2026 from its website. Check the firm's own page at ferns-law.co.uk for any update before instructing it. Compare against the verified London (Outer) band of £950 to £2,400 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
