Two leading law firms with offices in Romsey are thrilled to announce their merger, reinforcing both firms’ presence in the legal landscape across the South.  As of 1st May 2024, Parker Bullen LLP, a highly respected legal practice who have made a real mark in Romsey since opening in 2021, will merge with Kirklands Solicitors LLP, a well-established firm boasting an impeccable reputation with over 40 years in Romsey and Totton.

This merger brings together the collective expertise, experience, and resources of two esteemed firms, creating a synergy that will benefit clients and the community at large due to their commitment to excellence and client-focused values.

The current Kirklands offices in Romsey and Totton will be known as Parker Bullen Incorporating Kirklands from 1st May 2024, with Parker Bullen LLP retaining their current office on The Hundred in Romsey, in addition to their premises in Andover, Salisbury and Witney.

Gareth Horner, Managing Partner at Parker Bullen LLP, spoke of the merger, “As a firm we have grown significantly over the last few years; expanding from two offices at the beginning of 2021 to a firm of six offices and over 100 employees from May.  Our history and the reputation we built up in Andover and Salisbury served us well when opening our Romsey office in 2021 and our Witney office in 2022, and this merger with Kirklands will allow us a new exciting avenue into Totton and the wider New Forest area.  Having met the Kirklands team on many occasions, we are convinced that their values align keenly with ours in relation to looking after our clients and colleagues to deliver the best legal services we can.”

Peter Slade, Managing Partner for Kirklands Solicitors LLP, commented, “We are excited to embark on this journey with Parker Bullen LLP and unite our strengths to deliver unparalleled legal services to our clients. This merger represents a significant milestone for both firms, and we are confident that together we will continue to set new benchmarks in the legal industry.”
