With four offices in the UK, including one in Southampton, BDB Pitmans is one of the longest established law firms in the region, providing legal services across the Solent, Hampshire and the Central South.
BDB Pitmans provides expertise and local knowledge across a wide range of legal services including: planning and development; commercial real estate; corporate and commercial; employment and workplace law; restructuring and insolvency; pensions; ports, harbours and marinas and rural businesses as well as high-quality legal advice to individuals and their families; driven with the foundation of helping shape what’s important to people and society.
In joining the Business South Champion Programme, BDB Pitmans builds upon this foundation to work in partnership with other like-minded businesses with a shared vision for economic progression in the region.
The Business South Champion Programme was established in 2006 to unify business leaders and stakeholders to work collaboratively to develop local business connections and collectively address wider economic issues.
The acclaimed network has grown to become an influential business community; proactively working on economic projects, facilitating sector development through dedicated Action Groups, providing a collective business voice, and promoting the area nationally and internationally.
