Law Offices for Rent in Downtown New York
Law Offices for Rent on Broadway in Downtown New York is written for legal services firms that need timely advice on the local office market. As the Covid19 pandemic wanes, the NYC courts are re-opening for in person appearances. Many law firms that have been working remotely are returning to the office with an understanding that they can operate using a hybrid work model and thus occupy smaller-sized offices. With a smaller “foot print” rent overhead can be reduced.
Historically, high occupancy costs have a deleterious effect on law office profitability and the single most effective strategy for addressing this is by increasing office space efficiency. Space efficiency or “space optimization” can be gained through the following:
(1) Reducing the size of offices: Even the dimensions of a Partner’s office can be reduced and still convey seniority by its location within the workspace. Typical Partner office sizes now range from 168 to 225 square feet. Associate offices can be as small as 96 square feet and remain functional.
(2) Alter the construction: The installation of a full or partial glass wall at the front of a windowed office allows light to penetrate to the core of a space where interior offices can be built. For privacy the glass can be frosted.
(3) Modify common areas: Embrace open seating when possible. Collaboration zones with comfortable seating, a worktable and screen enhance productivity and appeal to younger staff. Law libraries are relics.
(4) Right-size conference rooms: A conference room with a capacity of between 8 and 12 persons is sufficient for most firms. Larger meetings can be held offsite at a conferencing center.
(5) Better utilize support persons: It used to be that there was a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio of assistants to attorneys. With the efficiency gained through technology, the ratio can be as high as 1:6.
(6) Employ technology for mobility and efficiency: Attorneys need to work from anywhere and be connected at all times. Archive file rooms can be off premises in an economical storage facility or saved as a digital file.
