Firm moves to new London premises

Browne Jacobson is set to significantly expand its presence in the City after announcing plans to move to new London premises.

The firm’s London office will re-locate from 77 Gracechurch Street to 6 Bevis Marks in December 2014 where it will occupy 10,323 sq ft Grade A office space over two floors—more than double its current premises—as part of a 15-year lease.  

The move to 6 Bevis Marks, which is a brand new building that was recently developed by AXA Real Estate and is located in the City’s insurance and financial districts alongside the Gherkin and the Heron Tower, allows the firm considerable capacity to expand its headcount as well as enabling it to continue to deliver exceptional client service.

Iain Blatherwick, managing partner at Browne Jacobson, says: “This is a really exciting move for us and one that fully supports our long term growth strategy and strategic vision of delivering exceptional client service. The firm is unrecognisable from the one that moved into Gracechurch Street six years ago. 6 Bevis Marks gives us the impressive platform we need to build on the unprecedented growth we have delivered in recent years across all our core sectors, with a particular emphasis on growing our technology, brands, luxury retail,  international fraud and asset recovery litigation and professional negligence practices.”
