Law firm establishes itself in Melrose Arch

International law firm, Eversheds, has relocated its offices to the well-positioned precinct at an iconic new urban development area surrounded by world-class hotels, luxury apartments and the best local and international retail.

Melrose Arch boasts pristine offices occupied by the likes of Stanlib, Worley Parsons, Bidvest Group, Lonmin, British Airways, Royal Bafokeng Holdings, Sasfin Wealth, and DuPont.

“We’re pleased to support Eversheds in growing its business in an environment that promotes innovation and diversity. I am certain that they will be very happy here,” said Melrose Arch precinct manager, Mike Vermaak.

The law firm is a full-service multidisciplinary firm that provides legal services in virtually every area of law. It also has offices in Bryanston as well as in Durban. It has moved its litigation, commercial, tax and intellectual property departments to the new offices at Melrose Arch.

“We wanted to distinguish ourselves from our major competitors who are moving to the Sandton CBD,” said Eversheds managing partner, Peter van Niekerk.

“Our new office space also ties in with our vision for planned growth as well as our recent rebrand which took place in July 2015. This re-brand also incorporates a whole new visual identity which reflects our innovative culture; it is all about forward thinking, approaching things differently and going the extra mile for our clients and staff.”

Renee Feeney, head of leasing at Melrose Arch who concluded the deal with Eversheds, said Melrose Arch is considered an ideal location by many top national and multinational concerns and leading blue-chip companies because of the ease, safety and enjoyment it offers for business at the highest levels.

“We used our move to position ourselves as one of the major legal players in the South African legal market,” added Van Niekerk.
