The firm’s 15-strong London operation, helmed by partner Sharon Daly, is now based on the seventh floor of the Octagon Point building beside St Paul’s Cathedral, not far from Matheson’s previous Love Lane address.

The new offices comprise a mixture of two- and four-person offices, quiet spaces, an internal meeting room and a large open-plan shared seating area. The layout also maximises the light and the excellent views of some of London’s best known landmarks.

At 2,600 sq ft, the new facilities are over one-and-a-half times the size of Matheson’s previous premises, and also include access to a separate client meeting space of similar size.

Matheson managing partner Michael Jackson said: “These new premises will greatly improve the office experience for our London-based colleagues, for clients and for visitors to London from other Matheson offices.

“This latest investment by Matheson in London comes on the back of significant growth in our London team over the past 12 months, with new senior resources being added to already strong representation across our commercial litigation; corporate M&A; finance and capital markets; technology and innovation; and tax teams.

“We are continuing to actively recruit in the London market, and the additional space we have taken in Octagon Point reflects our desire to continue to grow our London presence.”
