Mark’s ‘delighted’ to be joining the residential property team at Parker Bullen’s Romsey office

Parker Bullen Incorporating Kirklands has welcomed new partner Mark Barratt to its residential property department.

Mark, who’ll be based at the firm’s new office at Strong House in Romsey, joins following the recent merger between Parker Bullen LLP and Kirklands Solicitors LLP, bringing a wealth of experience to the team.

With a career spanning over two decades, Mark’s been dedicated to the field of residential conveyancing since leaving university in 2003.

He’s worked primarily in Hampshire – plus a brief stint in Lincolnshire – and became a licensed conveyancer in 2021, adding to his LLB (hons) law degree.

Mark’s expertise covers all facets of residential conveyancing, including sales and purchases, remortgaging, and transfer of equity.

“Buying or selling a home can be a nerve-wracking experience”, he said.

“I strive to make the process as smooth as possible, whether my clients are moving into their dream home or dealing with a sale due to life changes such as divorce or bereavement.

“My goal is to take the unnecessary stress out of the equation and achieve timely, satisfactory results.

“I’m delighted to be joining Parker Bullen Incorporating Kirklands at such a pivotal moment in the firm’s history, and look forward to working with my new colleagues, clients and the local business community in Romsey more over the coming months.”

The newly combined firm now operates from six offices across the South of England, including four in Hampshire, plus Wiltshire and Oxfordshire.

Gareth Horner, managing partner, added: “We’re thrilled to have Mark join our team and are confident that his expertise and client-focused approach will be invaluable assets to Parker Bullen Incorporating Kirklands.

“His presence reinforces our commitment to providing exceptional service and legal guidance in residential property matters and further strengthens our property offering, particularly in Romsey.”
