Sarah Harris

Sarah studied law at the University of Southampton and the National University of Singapore.  She initially worked as a property paralegal before qualifying as a solicitor with a large regional firm in Southampton in 2014. Sarah has practiced mainly in residential property matters but has now transferred to commercial property under the supervision of the Head of Commercial Property, James Larke.  She joined Burley Geach in 2021 but has worked in the Petersfield area since 2016.  The experience and wealth of local knowledge that Sarah brings to Burley Geach is of great benefit to her clients and enhances the service provided to them.
