Edinburgh law firm and estate agency, Ralph Sayer, has moved to larger headquarters in the city, as it prepares to welcome a dozen new members of staff in the coming weeks.
The firm has grown significantly since its launch in October 2022, from 15 people to a total of 42, including the new joiners.
The arrivals will include paralegals, an estate agent, trainee solicitors, modern apprentices, a PA and a purchase negotiator.
The new office will still be in Birch House in the Sighthill area of the city, although at 3534 square feet, it is three times the size of the previous one. Facilities include four meeting rooms, a boardroom, and a staff kitchen and dining area.
Chief executive Ivan Ralph said: “We are growing more quickly than I had expected, which is hugely encouraging.
“The previous office was perfect to start with but as we continued to grow it became evident that a much bigger space was going to be required.
“We’re seeing a definite upturn in the levels of business. Last year, we were looking at around 250 new files being opened each month.
“This year so far, we are up about 30 per cent on that figure at 330 per month and have been making good general progress.
“When the office below us became available, it made sense to move in there as it is much bigger, has a more flexible layout and gives us scope for further growth.”
