Shakespeare Martineau is moving its Leicester office to space across the road. The law firm is relocating from No 2 Colton Square to No 1 Colton Square. The move will come less than six months after Freeths law firm moved its Leicester operation from No 2 to No 1 Colton Square.
Shakespeare Martineau has been based in the office complex on the site of the city’s old police station for the past decade. Management said the change of space would not see any jobs lost and would give it a more “agile” working environment in line with people working from home more of the time following the pandemic.
The firm is taking 9,500 sq ft of first floor space from mid-June, compared to its existing offices which covers 12,500 sq ft. A spokewsoman said the new space was better configured, partly because the firm did not need as much storage due to moving to digital records.
