This year marked a return to more normal dynamics for legal leasing, but where companies sign leases has changed significantly in 2022, according to Savill`s U.S. law firms` Q3 2022 activity report. In accordance with applicable data protection laws, we have the right to use your personal data only in cases where we have a legal basis for processing. The report compares how legal rents for tenants have remained relatively stable compared to the tech sector, which has absorbed large office buildings to pause as recession fears loom over the economy. Savills points out that „large law firms, which typically enter into 10- to 15-year leases, typically do not make real estate decisions based on short-term economic conditions.” Sara Merken reports on data protection and security as well as the legal economy, including legal innovations and key players in the legal services industry.

As a sign of this more strategic perspective, the report notes that while legal leasing appears to be returning to more typical activities, there has been a significant shift in the areas where companies sign leases.
„While companies have a significant footprint in key law firm markets, they are also moving to new cities that previously had little or no presence on the Law 100,” Savills noted. If you wish to exercise any of your rights, please contact info@savillsim.com. In the long term, the volume of legal rentals could decrease as companies rethink their needs, and the number of „dedicated” offices decreases and common areas increase, the report says. The legal tenant analyzed transactions by law firms over 20,000 square feet (sq. ft) in major U.S. markets and found that the legal sector appears to be back on track with flat quarterly leasing figures since Q3 2021 – after a sharp decline in late 2020 and a slow start to 2021. Tom Fulcher, chair of Savills` Legal Tenant practice, said businesses are now „more confident” in achieving a new balance between office and remote work than they have in the past two years. They know at least enough to make „long-term commitments” to new office space, he said.
