New offices for Solicitors Regulation Authority

The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) is moving to new offices in The Cube, Birmingham. Some 700 SRA and Law Society staff will set up desk-space in 57,000 square feet of the iconic building in the summer.

The Cube is designed to resemble a jewel, reflecting Birmingham’s jewellery-making past. Chancery Lane, London will continue to be the Law Society’s main headquarters.

Desmond Hudson, CEO of the Law Society, says: “Consolidating our four current Midlands buildings and all our Midlands-based staff together in one building will reduce our costs, make us more effective and more efficient and support the provision of high quality services for our members.”
