Law firm Ellisons moves to new Ipswich office in 260th year
One of East Anglia's oldest law firms has relocated its Ipswich operations to new premises at Connexions on Princes Street, bringing its previously split teams under one roof.
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
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.
