Manak Solicitors

What Manak Solicitors does

Manak Solicitors is a UK-based, full-service regional law firm operating as Manak Lawyers Limited, founded in 2003 by Surinder Singh Manak in Orpington and grown organically to 60 staff across four offices (Orpington, Sevenoaks, Gravesend, Biggin Hill) serving Kent, London and the South East of England. The firm delivers legal services across residential and commercial conveyancing, family law (including high-net-worth divorce and Advanced Family Law Panel accreditation), wills and probate, employment, immigration, criminal law, litigation and disputes, and landlord and tenant matters, with multilingual delivery in English, French, Punjabi, Hindi and Urdu.

The firm's technology stack centres on a proprietary, trademarked client intake and quoting platform — Instant Instruct® and the 60-second online conveyancing quote system — supported by a newly launched in-house AI Legalese Translator that decodes complex legal text into plain English. Delivery is hybrid: in-person across four physical offices plus remote consultations via Zoom, WhatsApp, FaceTime and Teams.

Commercially, Manak operates a professional-services revenue model based predominantly on fixed-fee, one-off engagements (e.g., £300 single Will, £500 divorce management, £1,500 spouse visa, £7,500+ Global Talent visa) targeted at individuals, families, local SMEs, HNW clients and international applicants. Go-to-market combines SEO, content marketing (Insights blog, Manak Original video), an active social presence, and grassroots community engagement including local football club sponsorships and the Manak World Cup Index game. Quality marks held include Lexcel, CQS, Advanced Family Law Panel, and SRA authorisation.
