Having qualified in 2007, Tom joined our Property department in 2011 as Assistant Solicitor, rising through the ranks to Associate, Salaried Partner and now Equity Partner and Head of the Property Department.

Tom is a transaction expert with thousands of completions across all property sectors under his belt. He acts for all types of sellers, buyers, tenants, developers, farmers, traders and investors, working with a wide and varied range of transactions from individuals acquiring their first home to multi-million pound mixed use premises and everything in between. Tom finds himself in the fortunate position to be acting for the children of some of his first clients, and it will not be long until he starts acting for the next generation!

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.

I recently appointed Solicitor Mr Tom Bessant from Parker Bullen LLP based in Salisbury to represent me in dealing with a complex Lease assignment with a large commercial tenant. Tom was really helpful in making sense of the multitude of legal terms used and assisted me to successfully complete on my terms with the commercial tenant. Tom would always keep me updated with the progress and next steps without me having ever to follow up. You know a good Solicitor when you work with one and I would personally highly recommend the services of Mr Tom Bessant.

Tom Bessant has acted for me on a number of occasions including recently on a complex property purchase. His knowledge and experience were vital in finding solutions to various issues and key to the eventual positive outcome. I would happily recommend Tom and Parker Bullen more generally - they are skilled practitioners and keep you informed every step of the way.

As a residential and commercial property owner himself, Tom is able to draw on his own dealings to give his clients an edge through this unique insight. He views his job as not only enjoyable but also incredibly rewarding. Ultimately, he is committed to helping his clients achieve the best possible outcome. Tom always offers a bespoke service, giving his clients the same advice that he would follow himself and recommend to family and friends.
