Where can I buy a list of UK solicitors' firms with a named partner or manager and their email?
You can buy it here as an Excel or CSV file. We hold 10,205 solicitors' firm records. 9,365 of them name a contact, and 3,865 (about 38%) have that person's own email address. Every record has a postal address and a phone number, so plan a letter or a call for the firms without a named email. Ask for a free count first: it shows how many offices, contacts and emails fall inside your area and size range before you pay anything.
What you get when you buy solicitors data
In this sector one record is one law office, not one firm. A high-street practice with a single office is one record. A regional firm with branches in four towns can be four records, each with its own address and phone number.
| Channel | Records with it | Share | Coverage | What it means for solicitors' firms |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Post | 10,205 | 100% | Strong | Every record has a full postal address. A letter addressed to a named partner can be read when they have time, which suits people whose day is billed by the hour. |
| Phone | 10,205 | 100% | Strong | Every record has a phone number. Expect to reach reception at most firms. Ask for the practice manager by name; fee earners are rarely free to take a cold call. |
| Named contact | 9,365 | 92% | Strong | Nine records in ten name a person. In small practices that is usually an owner. In bigger firms it may be the practice manager rather than a partner. |
| Email | 3,865 | 38% | Usable, with care | About four firms in ten. Good enough to lead with email for part of the list, but not to run a whole campaign on it. |
| General email | 3,606 | 35% | Usable, with care | Addresses such as enquiries@ go to whoever handles new client work. Fine for a short note, but your message may be read as a possible client enquiry and passed around before a decision maker sees it. |
Watch out for branch offices. If you sell something one firm buys once, such as practice software or an insurance policy, several branch records for the same firm mean several letters landing on the same buyer. Sort your file by business name when it arrives and keep one office per firm, or tell us at the count stage that you only want single-site independents. If you sell something each office uses on its own, such as cleaning, signage or local referrals, keep every branch.
Our records are not limited to England and Wales. Firms in Scotland and Northern Ireland can be in your file too. Ask for the count split by region if your offer only suits one jurisdiction.
Who the named contacts are
A law firm is run by its owners. In a sole practice that is the solicitor whose name is often on the door. In a partnership it is the partners, in an LLP the members, and in a company the directors. For most supplier decisions in small and mid-sized firms, one person signs off: the managing partner or the senior partner. Larger firms hand day-to-day buying to a practice manager or operations lead, who then takes bigger spend to the partners.
- Managing partner
- Senior partner
- Partner
- Director (incorporated firms)
- Sole practitioner
- Practice manager
- COLP or COFA (ask if held)
In England and Wales, every SRA-authorised firm must designate a COLP (compliance officer for legal practice) and a COFA (compliance officer for finance and administration). If you sell compliance, risk or accounts tools, those are the people you want. In small firms they are often the same partner who runs the practice. A record only names one contact, and it won't always carry the COLP or COFA title. Ask the count to show how many records hold those titles before you build a campaign around them; if the number is small, address the managing partner instead.
Selections worth paying for with solicitors' firms
We can't select solicitors by area of law, such as conveyancing or family. Everything below is a selection we can make. The verdicts are for law firms specifically.
| Select by | For solicitors' firms | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Region or county | Worth it | Most useful if your service is local, such as couriers, process servers, surveyors or office services. It is also the easy way to keep out Scotland and Northern Ireland when your offer depends on SRA rules. |
| Postcode area or radius | Worth it | Law offices cluster in town centres and around county courts. A radius around your base gives a tight list for a sales team that visits in person. |
| Number of employees | Worth it | The clearest way to split the market. A firm of three people and a firm of eighty buy in very different ways, and need a different letter. |
| Independents or groups | Worth it | Take single-site independents when you want one record per buyer. Take multi-site groups when you sell to firms large enough to have a head office and a central buyer. |
| Job title | Sometimes | Helpful when you want practice managers only, or partners only. Less helpful for small practices, where one owner holds every role whatever title the record shows. |
| Records with an email only | Sometimes | Cuts the file to the 3,865 records with a named email. Worth it for an email-only test. For a full campaign, take every record and use post for the rest. |
| Turnover | Rarely needed | For law firms, headcount usually tells you what you need about size, and it is easier to brief. Choose employee size instead unless your offer is priced by revenue. |
| Records with a phone number only | Rarely needed | Every solicitors' record we hold already has a phone number, so this selection removes nothing. |
How much does solicitors data cost?
Every record in an order is charged at the rate for the size of the whole order.

| Records in the order | Price per 1,000 |
|---|---|
| Fewer than 2,500 | £295 |
| 2,500 to 4,999 | £270 |
| 5,000 to 9,999 | £245 |
| 10,000 to 19,999 | £220 |
| 20,000 to 49,999 | £195 |
| 50,000 or more | £170 |
The whole list is over 10,000 records, so it sits in a cheaper band per record than the named-contact or email-only cuts. If you would use most of the file anyway, buying every record can cost little more than a cut-down version. Compare both in your quote.
Licence, accuracy, screening and delivery
For a law firm list, the 12-month licence matters because firms change slowly but people move. Partners retire, practices merge, branches close. Use the file across the year, not just once, and screen again before every calling round, because the TPS and CTPS screening only covers 28 days from delivery. The licence is for your own marketing. It doesn't let you pass the list to a partner firm or a reseller.

The ONS figures are workplaces. The Solicitors Regulation Authority counts firms instead, by head office, for England and Wales only. At the end of October 2026 it listed 8,878 firms: 5,270 incorporated companies, 1,410 LLPs, 1,295 sole practitioners and 876 partnerships. Here LLPs are counted on their own, so roughly a quarter of SRA firms (sole practitioners plus partnerships) are individual subscribers under PECR. The ICO lists limited liability partnerships as corporate bodies, so an LLP can be emailed without prior consent on the same terms as a company.
In practice: before an email campaign, split your file by legal form. Email the companies and LLPs. Write to or call the sole practitioners and partnerships, unless they have agreed to hear from you by email. Where a record names a person, UK GDPR still applies to every channel.
Before you buy solicitors data: questions to settle
- One letter per firm, or one per office? Decide before you order, and say so when you ask for the count.
- Which part of the UK? If your offer relies on SRA rules, limit the area to England and Wales.
- Which size of firm? Pick an employee size range that matches who can afford and use what you sell.
- Partner or practice manager? Choose the job titles you want to address, and check the count for each.
- Email or post as the lead channel? With about 38% named email coverage, most campaigns need both.
- Have you split by legal form? Plan which records get an email and which get a letter or call before the file arrives.
- Have you seen the sample? Check a few records against the firms' own websites before you pay.
Questions about buying solicitors data
Where can I buy a list of UK solicitors' firms with a named partner or manager and their email?
You can buy it here as an Excel or CSV file. We hold 10,205 solicitors' firm records. 9,365 of them name a contact, and 3,865 (about 38%) have that person's own email address. Every record has a postal address and a phone number, so plan a letter or a call for the firms without a named email. Ask for a free count first: it shows how many offices, contacts and emails fall inside your area and size range before you pay anything.
Can I buy a list of solicitors by area of law, like conveyancing or family law?
No. We don't hold a selection by area of law, so we won't promise one. You can narrow by area, firm size, single site or group, and the contact's job title. If you need firms in one practice area, buy a broader list and write a message that lets the right firms pick themselves out.
Will I get several records for the same law firm?
You can. Each record is an office, so a firm with branches can appear more than once. Ask for single-site independents, or sort the file by business name and keep one office per firm.
Can I buy solicitors data with the COLP's name and email?
Only where the record's named contact holds that title. A record names one person, often the managing partner or practice manager. Ask the free count to show how many records carry COLP or COFA in the job title before you plan around it.
Is it legal to email solicitors I buy from a list?
For companies and LLPs, yes, if you say who you are and give an easy way to opt out. For sole practitioners and ordinary partnerships you need their prior consent, so write or call them instead. Check the legal form of each record before you send.
How much does solicitors data cost?
All 10,205 records: £2,245.10 excluding VAT, at £220 per 1,000. The 3,865 with a named email: £1,043.55. Orders under 2,500 records are £295 per 1,000, and the minimum order is £300 plus VAT. Your quote gives the exact figure.
