Dickinson DeesNewcastle leader Dickinson Dees has expanded its office capacity taking on an extra 18,000 sq ft – the second time in less than three years the firm has had to take on additional space.

The 61-partner firm, which is based in offices at Newcastle’s St Anne’s Wharf, has taken on the extra space in Eldon Court in the city centre giving the firm space for at least another 180 staff. The space is expected to initially house the firm’s property team.
