By far the best solicitor I have engaged with.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I needed to engage with a solicitor and quite rightly went to Parker Bullen LLP.
Caring, helpful and knowledgeable. The matter was settled remarkably quickly and should the need arise again, Parker Bullen will always be first choice.

Will Service

When reviewing my Will and realising it required review, Parker Bullen were recommended to me.
I was looked after by Jo at the Salisbury office and she was professional, helpful, friendly and informative. She explained everything at the outset and was supportive throughout the whole process.
Having used the conveyancing services of Parker Bullen in the past, I would definitely go to them again for help with anything requiring a solicitor.

Excellent service as ever

We needed our Wills updating and PofA set up for ourselves.
We were given very good advice with regard to the queries we had, and the draft documents were produced very quickly.
It was always easy to arrange and get an appointment to see Jo and Lisa.
We would certainly use them again for other issues, and recommend them to friends etc without reserve.

Preparation of a Will with relevant legal advice

Jo & Lisa prepared my latest iteration of my Will, and the service was excellent, with great legal advice and quality of the actual document presented. I waited a period of time with another practice to get an appointment, who could not deliver this service in timely manner to my liking, so I am very pleased, I went to Parker Mullen. I would highly recommend this practice for all your legal requirements. Great service.

Parker Bullen helped me formulate my will and have agreed to be my executors. In particular, I would like to thank Lisa McKellar for her excellent assistance. She has been amicable, efficient, and highly professional. She is an absolute credit to your firm. Many thanks and kindest regards, David Woods

I cannot rate PB enough and moreover my solicitor Karen Matthews, I am possibly the worst house buyer due to having little or no patience but Karen and her staff handled everything brilliantly! This is the 6th time she’s handled house related paperwork for me and this time hopefully my last ever purchase 🤞🏻never complains I’m too pushy or needy despite being so!
I would highly recommend her and the team!
Always thankful 😁 but I hope I never have to sell or buy again which is no reflection on the service 🤣🤣

I can not recommend Parker Bullen Andover enough. From the offset they were professional, responded very quickly to all emails.
I had the pleasure of working with Suzanne Foster. She was always available for advice and explained every step of the process in detail, was always honest and listened to my wishes. I would not hesitate to work with Suzanne or anybody at Parker Bullen in the future.
A special Thank You to Suzanne for all of your help.
