Fieldfisher opens doors to new home at Paradise Birmingham
The Birmingham office for European firm Fieldfisher hosted clients, partners, and the local business community to celebrate the opening of its new 12,000 sq ft office space at Two Chamberlain Square, in the city’s £1.2bn Paradise development.
The strategic move will support Fieldfisher’s plans to double its regional workforce over the next five years, with an ambition to attract local talent and offer returning opportunities to legal professionals who may have left the region.
With more than 150 guests in attendance for the launch celebrations, Fieldfisher’s Birmingham team was joined by colleagues from across its European network - including Spain, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and Poland - who were welcomed by a choral group performing songs in multiple languages.
Alongside speeches from visiting European partners, Robert Shooter (managing partner), and Ranjit Dhindsa (Birmingham office leader and Head of UK and European People and Work) spoke to the achievements of the regional team, noting how the relocation represents a new chapter for Fieldfisher in Birmingham.
Commenting on the event, Ranjit Dhindsa, Birmingham office leader and Head of UK and European People and Work, said: "Our new home at Paradise represents the significant level of investment Fieldfisher has committed to the region, and marks a landmark moment for the Birmingham team as we prepare for our next stage of growth.
“Being at the heart of the Midlands’ business community will allow us to deepen our client relationships and continue to deliver our specialist, market-leading services across the city’s thriving financial services, energy, and health technology sectors.
“With central foundations now firmly in place, we look forward to accelerating our ambitions for the region.”
