Tom Bessant
Having worked with Tom for sometime he continues to impress. Tom is a real thinker and puts himself in the shoes of his client....he picks up the phone and makes things happen, meeting deadlines, sorting issues and doing it all in a manner that is disarming as opposed to confrontational. We are glad to have him acting as part of our team.

Parker Bullen Solicitors Salisbury
Parker Bullen acted for me in the purchase of a retirement flat arising from a deceased estate. I found all the people I dealt with to be friendly yet professional. But more importantly I was kept fully informed as matters progressed. In addition, matters were dealt with quickly. I have no hesitation in recommending Parker Bullen.

Unable to speak to a lawyer
I am an existing client, hoping to make two new engagements. I made two separate requests, more than a month apart, to speak directly to a qualified lawyer to deal with A. a pricing issue (I felt the quote on a transfer of equity was too high, since it was almost the same as the cost of a complete conveyance); B. a more complex issue that I needed to explain in some detail in order to get a price quote. No one called me back to discuss these items, even though I requested this twice. On the latter occasion the request was made directly to a Partner

Harassment and GDPR Breach
The solicitor I dealt with and the assistants were fine, I dealt with one of the partners who showed no empathy, was rude and very unprofessional.
Breached GDPR guidelines due to this I would not recommend this company.

Excellent conveyancing work
Great experience with the Parker Bullen Salisbury conveyancing team. Clear, quick communication that meant everything moved very easily on my side of the sale. All my questions answered swiftly and really politely (not just the superficial politeness you sometimes get - they are really supportive). Will be using again.

Commercial Property Purchase
Having used Parker Bullen LLP previously for other business matters, we didn't hesitate in instructing them to act for us in the acquisition of a multi-tenanted commercial property investment. Tom Bessant was extremely thorough, advising us at every turn. He was always available to answer any of our questions and at no point did we need to chase him up. We would happily recommend Tom without hesitation
