Why it matters: The move brings together Ellisons' teams from Arcade Street and Wherstead Park into a single 9,000 sq ft office space, marking a significant expansion in the firm's 260-year history.
The details:
The new first-floor office features 75 desks and multiple meeting rooms
The premises include on-site client parking and a reception area
The location offers views of Ipswich Town FC's stadium
The office is designed for modern, flexible working practices
The new office, in the very heart of Ipswich's business district, provides an outstanding space for our growing team and ensures we are well-positioned to continue offering exceptional service to current and future clients whatever their legal needs.
Lorna Denton-Cardew, Head of the Ipswich Office, added: “We’re thrilled to be able to bring our colleagues, who were previously located at Arcade Street and Wherstead Park, together under one roof. This move allows us to unite our teams, improving collaboration and creating a seamless experience for our clients.”
Background: Ellisons has operated in Ipswich for more than a decade:
The firm strengthened its local presence in 2020 through its merger with Blocks Solicitors.
The company maintains offices across Essex and Suffolk, including in Bury St Edmunds, Chelmsford, Colchester and Frinton.
Bottom line: The relocation represents a major investment in Ipswich by one of the region's longest-established legal firms, consolidating its presence in the town's business quarter.
