About Us
Who we are
Based in central Manchester, Leading Property Lawyers (LPL) is a specialist conveyancing firm helping people buy, sell, and re-mortgage property across England and Wales.
We know that moving home is one of the biggest financial commitments most people will ever make. Property transactions can feel stressful and confusing – being left in the dark only adds to the pressure.
At LPL, we believe there’s a better way: clear, proactive guidance, expert advice, and consistent updates, so you always know where you stand and your transaction stays on track.
From day one, LPL was built to do things differently. We combine experienced conveyancers, proven systems, and technology designed to support people, not replace them. That means fewer surprises, faster progress, and far less chasing for updates – making your move smoother, simpler, and easier to manage.
Founded in 2017 as a division of Read Roper & Read Solicitors, which has been providing legal services since 1875, LPL has grown rapidly, while keeping the focus on what matters: people and outcomes.
We have been awarded the Law Society’s Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS), and are trusted by all major lenders, giving you confidence that your transaction is in safe hands.

Integrity, professionalism, and respect guide how we work with clients, colleagues, and partners every day. Regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), we work to uphold trust in legal services and ensure our clients, partners, and colleagues are treated fairly and ethically.

Awesome Solicitor
We had some reservations when our broker chose to use LPL for my wife and I to buy a house but we worried for nothing. William Grimshaw was our dedicated solicitor and he was truly awesome from start to finish. 3 months and now we have our house. I cannot recommend him enough 10/10
