21 authorised firms with a practising office in the Gateshead district on 3 November 2026, from the SRA's own data feed. Conveyancing firms first, ordered by distance from the centre of the district's offices; every one must publish its prices under the SRA Transparency Rules.
On 3 November 2026 the SRA register listed 21 authorised firms with a practising office in Gateshead, operating 23 offices between them. 12 firms report residential property work in the most recent annual return, 18 list a website and 10 have more than one practising office. By authorisation type the district splits into 15 recognised body, 4 licensed body and 2 recognised sole practice.
The longest-standing authorisation in the district dates from November 2011 and the most recent from July 2026; 2 firms were authorised in the twelve months before the snapshot. 16 of the 21 firms carry a company registration number that matched a Companies House record. The most commonly reported areas of law here are residential property (12), probate (11), commercial property (10), wills and trusts (10) and employment (7).
Every one of the 12 firms reporting residential property work is required by the SRA Transparency Rules to publish its conveyancing prices on its website, or to supply them on request where it has none. 11 of them list a website in the register, and this site has located a published price page for 6. For context, the verified conveyancing legal fee range for Newcastle on this site is £600 to £1,500 plus VAT for a purchase.

"From centre" is the straight-line distance from the mean position of all practising offices in the district. Rows without a link are firms whose SRA record is too sparse for a page of their own. "Also reported" shows probate, wills and family where the firm reported them. The "Prices published" badge means we read a conveyancing price page on that firm's own website and confirmed what it covers; a firm without one may still publish prices we did not find. Hover or tap a row to find that office on the map.

Published conveyancing fees near Gateshead
21 firms within 25 km of the centre of the Gateshead district publish, on their own websites, a freehold purchase fee that covers a £300,000 property. The SRA Transparency Rules require the figure; we read each page and show the fee as the firm printed it, with the page and the date. Ordered by that published fee, lowest first. A range or "from" price is placed by its lower figure and labelled; a firm with a band table shows the band its own table assigns to £300,000.

Before you instruct a firm
- Check the firm on the SRA register (each firm page links to its entry) and confirm the SRA number on the firm's website matches.
- Read the published price page: it must show the total or a range, hourly rates or fixed fees, disbursements, VAT and timescales. See how to compare conveyancing quotes.
- A conveyancer does not need to be local; compare at least three written quotes, including an online conveyancer.
