Law firm BDB Pitmans expands to larger Southampton office
BDB Pitmans has moved to larger offices in Southampton following a period of growth.
The firm has taken a 10-year lease on the Grade II-listed 4 Grosvenor Square, offering more than 7,000 square feet of office space.
It adds to BDB Pitmans’ existing offices in London, Cambridge and Reading, and follows the appointment in January of partner James Barnett – a commercial real estate specialist.
Oliver Kelly, head of BDB Pitmans’ Southampton office, said: “This is a significant move and investment in Southampton, providing scope for further growth over the next decade.

“4 Grosvenor Square gives us the space and facilities needed for a superior experience for our clients, intermediaries and our members of staff.”
Omega RE acted as letting and managing agents for the site.
John Hutchinson, managing partner at BDB Pitmans, added: “Southampton is without doubt a significant hub for businesses in the Solent region and across Southern England.
“Its connections to London and Reading sit alongside our office footprint providing businesses and individuals with the full range of legal services and support they need.”
The firm’s Southampton team were recognised recently at The Business Magazine’s Solent Deal Awards, making the shortlist for the Law Firm of the Year, Small Deal of the Year and Mid-sized Deal of the Year awards.
Oliver Kelly was also shortlisted for Lawyer of the Year, and Leah Houghton for Young Dealmaker of the Year.
