  • Property & Conveyancing Law

At Frankland & Co. Solicitors (UK) LLP, our property and conveyancing support is grounded in traditional professional standards: disciplined document review, careful due diligence, and calm, practical advice. Whether you are buying, selling, leasing, or managing a property matter, our role is to protect your position and progress the transaction efficiently—ensuring key steps are handled properly and documented clearly.

We understand that property matters can be fast-moving and administratively demanding. We take a structured approach designed to reduce uncertainty, identify risk early, and keep you informed at each stage.

Who We Support

We advise individuals and families buying or selling property, landlords and tenants on lease-related matters where within scope, and businesses and property owners requiring transactional support and documentation. Support is available through our London and Manchester offices, with remote consultations offered where appropriate.

When to Seek Advice

It is sensible to seek advice when you are purchasing or selling a property and want the process managed properly, when you have been issued documents you do not fully understand, or when a lease contains terms that could create long-term risk or cost. Early guidance is also valuable when a transaction is delayed and you need clarity on what is outstanding, when issues have arisen during searches, survey, or documentation review, or when you need practical advice before signing or committing to terms.

What We Advise On

Our property and conveyancing services

Comprehensive Property and Conveyancing Services

We provide structured support across key property matters, tailored to your specific needs. Our transactional services include buying and selling property where instructed, reviewing and advising on transaction documentation, managing the conveyancing process with clear stages and updates, and identifying issues that may affect timing, value, or risk. We also handle leases and property documentation, reviewing and advising on lease terms and property documents, providing practical advice on obligations, responsibilities, and key clauses, and supporting documentation updates and variations where applicable. Additionally, we offer guidance on property-related matters as scope permits, including support where issues arise during a transaction or lease relationship, advising on practical next steps and risk reduction, and providing structured assistance where a matter becomes contentious and requires escalation. Property matters vary widely, and we confirm scope clearly at the outset based on the specific transaction or issue.

Our Three-Stage Approach: Foundation and Progression

Property matters progress best when handled methodically, and we follow a structured three-stage approach from start to completion. In Stage 1—Instruction, Due Diligence, and Risk Review—we begin by confirming objectives, key dates, and what is being agreed, reviewing draft documentation, identifying risk points, and explaining what information is required to proceed. You can expect a clear explanation of the process and key milestones, early identification of risk issues and practical priorities, a structured request for documents and information, and clear guidance on next steps and realistic timescales. In Stage 2—Documentation, Enquiries, and Progression—we manage the core legal and documentary stages, reviewing paperwork, raising enquiries where appropriate, and progressing matters in an orderly way while keeping the transaction moving and ensuring due diligence is handled properly. You can expect thorough document review with careful attention to detail, clear advice on any issues identified and available options, disciplined case management with meaningful updates, and practical progression towards exchange or commitment stages as applicable.

Completion and Professional Closure

In Stage 3—Completion, Confirmation, and Closing—we complete the transaction properly, confirm completion steps clearly, and ensure key documents are finalized and retained appropriately. You can expect a controlled completion process with clear confirmation, final documentation checks and version control, practical guidance on any remaining post-completion matters, and a structured close so you leave with clarity and confidence. Our methodical approach throughout ensures that property transactions are handled with precision, risks are identified early, and you are kept informed at every stage, making what can be a complex process straightforward and transparent.

Costs — Clear Information from the Outset

Our fees reflect the nature of the transaction or property matter, its complexity, urgency, and the volume of documentation involved. Where appropriate, fees may be fixed for clearly scoped work, while in other cases they are time-based due to uncertainty or evolving requirements. We confirm the scope and fee basis clearly in writing, provide estimates or ranges where appropriate, explain likely stages and any third-party costs, and keep you fully informed if scope changes materially.

Careful due diligence. Clear advice. Disciplined progression from instruction to completion.

Property transactions and related matters often involve tight deadlines, detailed documentation, and significant financial risk. We provide structured support on transactions, leases, and property matters—delivered with traditional professionalism, careful preparation, and clear communication throughout.
