Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 March 2026

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Gordons Solicitors Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" including the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Significant judgements and estimates
In the application of the company's accounting policies the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

The company does not make significant estimates and assumptions concerning the future.

Turnover
Turnover represents the fair value of services provided during the period on client assignments. Turnover is recognised as legal services are undertaken and the right to consideration is earned. Fair value reflects the amount expected to be recoverable from clients and is based on the time spent, skills and expertise provided and expenses incurred. Turnover excludes Value Added Tax.

Turnover in respect of contingent fee assignments (over and above any agreed minimum fee) is recognised in the period when the contingent event occurs and the collectability of the fee is assured. Unbilled turnover on individual client assignments is included as work in progress.

Goodwill
Goodwill, being the amount paid in connection with the acquisition of a business in 2014, is being amortised evenly over its estimated useful life of ten years.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets are initially measured at cost. After initial recognition, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its estimated useful life.
Fixtures and fittings - 50% on cost
Computer equipment - 50% on cost

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments
Basic financial instruments are recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method, except for investments in non-convertible preference and non-puttable preference and ordinary shares, which are measured at fair value, with changes recognised in profit or loss. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at cost and therefore at fair value, with changes recognised in profit and loss.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Claims
Provision is made on a case by case basis in respect of the cost of defending claims and where appropriate the estimated cost to the firm of settling claims, net of expected insurance recoveries.

3. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS

The average number of employees during the year was 17 (2025 - 18 ) .
