Kaur Sutherland Expands into Glasgow’s West End, Bridging a Gap in Local Conveyancing Services

Kaur Sutherland, a leading Scottish law firm specialising in residential and commercial conveyancing, is proud to announce the opening of a brand-new branch in the heart of Glasgow’s West End.

The expansion marks a strategic milestone in the firm’s growth, addressing a long-underserved demand for accessible, expert legal support in one of the city’s most vibrant and fast-growing areas.

The new office, located on Queen Margaret Drive, will offer a full range of property law services, including residential and commercial conveyancing, wills and powers of attorney, and estate planning.

With increasing activity in the West End property market, the new branch brings Kaur Sutherland’s mix of legal expertise and personal service closer to home for clients in areas such as Hillhead, Partick, Jordanhill, and Hyndland.

Jus Chall, Director of Operations at Kaur Sutherland, said: "For too long, clients in the West End have had to look beyond their own neighbourhoods to access reliable, efficient conveyancing and property law services. With this new branch, we’re bridging that gap. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, a seasoned property investor, or a local business owner, we’re here with the local insight and legal expertise you need, right on your doorstep."

Previously operating under ‘Macrae and Kaur’, Kaur Sutherland is one of Glasgow's leading law firms for property transactions, establishing itself as a trusted partner to individuals, developers, and lenders across Scotland. The West End branch joins existing offices in Glasgow City Centre, Dumbarton, Lenzie, and Greenock, strengthening the firm’s reach and ability to deliver prompt, responsive legal support where it’s needed most.

Claire Sutherland, Partner and Head of the West End office, added: "The West End is a dynamic and diverse part of the city with a strong sense of identity and community. We’re thrilled to be establishing roots here, offering the same high standards of professionalism and care that Kaur Sutherland is known for.”

With a deep understanding of the Scottish property market and approved panel status with major UK lenders, Kaur Sutherland is uniquely positioned to support clients through every stage of a transaction, efficiently, affordably, and with genuine local expertise.

Remember: There’s a difference between cheap conveyancing solicitors and good value conveyancing solicitors.

Some firms delegate property work to inexperienced and junior staff – sometimes to people who aren’t even qualified solicitors. Other solicitors can turn out to be based hundreds of miles away from you and it can be impossible to contact them at all, let alone meet them face to face.

Macrae & Kaur are unique amongst Glasgow solicitors in that all of our property work is carried out by senior partners, highly-experienced property solicitors who really know Glasgow and are always available to meet you in person.

Conveyancing fees

Our conveyancing fees are competitively priced, your first consultation together with submitting offers and noting interest is free. We promise total fee transparency – all costs will be laid out clearly before you make a commitment and we do not start charging extras once you have signed up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I have to pay Additional Dwelling Supplement?

If you have not sold your main residence on the day you complete your new purchase you'll have to pay ADS. This is because you own 2 properties. You can apply for a refund if you sell your previous main home within 18 months.

How long does the Conveyancing process take?

The conveyancing process usually takes between 6 and 12 weeks but will vary. Depending on your situation, your case can take much longer than 6-12 weeks. Conveyancing can take a long time for many reasons. Each step of the process must be completed correctly to avoid even further delay.

Do I have to pay anything upfront?

Our firm does not charge any upfront fees for our service. The 'no completion, no fee' means you only need to pay us on the completion date.

Can I Buy and Sell at the same time?

In an ideal world, you’d sell your home the minute you put it on the market and then have all the time you need to find your next dream home while your buyers wait patiently until you’re ready to move. Unfortunately, we don’t live in an ideal world and in most cases you’ll need to sell and buy at the same time. This results in a housing chain. While not uncommon, property chains can cause significant headaches. So if you’re planning to buy and sell your house at the same time, make sure you’re prepared. We can help keep everything runs smoothly and according to plan.

How much Land and Building Transaction Tax will I need to pay?

The residential LBTT rates are based on the purchase price bands, with a ceiling for nil rates set at £145,000 A relief for first-time buyers is available, which increases the residential nil rate band of LBTT to £175,000.The availability of the relief will result in a reduction in tax of up to £600 for qualifying first-time buyers, relative to the rates which would have otherwise applied.
