Squire Patton Boggs has announced that it has signed a lease to become the first occupier at 19 Cornwall Street in Birmingham, demonstrating the firm’s commitment to the Midlands market.
The firm, which employs around 150 people in Birmingham, will relocate in mid- 2026 from its current office in Edmund Street to 19 Cornwall Street, taking 22,231 sq ft of Grade A office space.
The BREEAM-certified building is registered to achieve a NABERS 5-Star Design Reviewed Target Rating. The office will also be Net Zero Carbon in operation, with sustainable features including energy-efficient systems, low carbon construction materials and enhanced insulation, reflecting the firm’s commitment to sustainable business practices.
Birmingham office managing partner Tom Durrant (pictured), said: “We have outstanding staff, a strong client base and great ambition for our future in the city. Our move into 19 Cornwall Street gives us first-rate, sustainable facilities for our people and our clients and will be a prestigious platform for the firm’s long-term growth in the region.”
The announcement follows the growth and investment of the firm’s team in Birmingham, with the arrival of corporate partner Partho Chaudhuri at the beginning of September, and partners Ellie Pinnells and Victoria Callicott last year.
