Some South Florida law firms no longer are denoting seniority among attorneys with a bigger office and are designing workplaces with more common areas equipped with the latest technology.
Three firms moving their Broward County offices in the next two years are opting for workplaces with same-sized offices for all attorneys from associates to senior partners. They also are opting for a modern look with more glass for natural light and high-tech conference rooms, and some are choosing nontraditional shared-space designs like huddle rooms with couches and coffee tables.
“In a law firm, you probably think stuffy and big shelves of books and things like that. We are trying to create a space that reflects how we think as a business law firm, which is a little bit different than the stuffy atmosphere,” said Thomas Choberka, chief marketing and business development officer at Kelley Kronenberg.
