Capital Law, the legal services group, has signed a 12 year letting with Bailey Hodge Investments on a Cardiff office previously occupied by Peacocks, the retailer. Capital Law plans to move from its Caspian Point base in Cardiff Bay to the 20,000 sq ft Atlantic House East in East Tyndall Street in May.
Capital Law, headed by senior partner Chris Nott, started looking for bigger offices 18 months ago. Its future five storey headquarters is in East Tyndall Street, in an area formerly known as Newtown between Callaghan Square and Atlantic Wharf.
Nott said: “When we set out to find a new office space, we were looking for either a new build that we could influence from the start, or somewhere that would be refurbished before we take residence, and we have the latter with Atlantic House East.”
The firm has taken on interior design firm Witchell Associates to lead its office refurbishment.
Bailey Hodge Investments was set up in 2008 from a trading relationship between entrepreneur Paul Bailey and Julian Hodge Bank. It is a joint venture with Carlyle Property Development Company, the development arm of the group which owns Julian Hodge Bank.
Fletcher Morgan, DTZ and King Sturge acted for Bailey Hodge.
