Britton and Time Solicitors

What Britton and Time Solicitors does

Britton and Time Solicitors is a UK-regulated law firm operating as Britton and Time Limited, a private limited company founded in 2017 and headquartered at 29 Farm Street in Mayfair, London, with additional offices in Hove and Brighton. The firm employs approximately 35 staff and provides legal services across two principal segments: Personal Services (conveyancing, criminal defence, employment, family law, immigration, landlord and tenant, litigation, private client/wills and probate, residential leases, and small legal services) and Business Services (business agreements, business immigration, construction law, commercial litigation, commercial property, corporate, employment law for employers, and startup legal services). It is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (number 644762) and holds accreditations including the Conveyancing Quality Scheme and memberships in ILPA, Resolution, and the Property Litigation Association.

The firm operates a traditional professional services model with three pricing structures: time-based hourly billing (rates ranging from £180/hour for administration to £550/hour for the Managing Director as of 1 April 2025, recorded in six-minute units), fixed-fee arrangements (typically £800 to £18,000+ for immigration matters), and capped fee arrangements. It uses LEAP legal practice management software for case management and document production. Client acquisition is sales-led, driven by free 90-minute initial consultations, multi-channel content marketing (website blog, podcast, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, Instagram, email newsletter), and direct office visits.

Britton and Time is privately held with no institutional funding or parent company, ownership concentrated among founders and partners. Strategic activity in 2024-2025 includes doubling the Mayfair office footprint, launching a conveyancing service line, withdrawing Australian emigration services (April 2024), and expansion of digital marketing channels. The firm claims UK-wide coverage despite physical presence concentrated in London and the Brighton/Hove region.
