Yorkshire firm LCF Law has moved into a new office on 33 Park Place in Leeds after a sustained period of business success.
LCF Law’s move from its current base on Sovereign Street in Leeds follows an 11% increase in turnover in its last financial year.
The firm, which also has offices in Bradford, Harrogate and Ilkley, recruited seven new people within the same timeframe, and plans to create a further 20 jobs in the next 18 months, in Leeds alone.
Solicitor Andrew Donaldson joined the dispute resolution team from a South Yorkshire-based law firm last month.
In total, 35 of the firm’s 145-strong team from across its corporate, commercial, disputes and property divisions are now based in the 6,000 square foot office on Park Place.
The building has recently benefitted from a £1 million investment and refurbishment programme. LCF Law signed the lease on the space at 33 Park Place in January.
Commenting on the expansion, Simon Stell, managing partner at LCF Law, said the time had come to significantly expand the firm’s Leeds city centre office.
He said: “In recent years we’ve worked hard to become more efficient and improve productivity, as well as continually investing in our team, assisting them to achieve their full potential, and we’re now seeing the benefits of this ongoing strategy. With increased levels of repeat business and significant new client wins, the firm is poised for considerable future growth.”
“From our new base in Leeds, as well as from our other offices in Bradford, Harrogate and Ilkley, our experienced lawyers and support staff, many of whom are award winning, will continue to deliver legal services that exceed our client’s expectations. Our focus on communicating clearly, listening to our clients and acting in accordance with agreed instructions, timescales and budgets is what sets us apart from our competitors.”
