Sidley Austin LLP, an international law firm with nearly $3 billion in revenue and 20 worldwide offices, will open its 21st office in Miami. The law firm will join other professional services firms and companies at 830 Brickell, the new Class-A+ office tower nearing completion in Miami’s Brickell Financial District. Sidley Austin signed a three-floor, 60,000 square-foot lease at the 55-story tower, marking the largest new-to-market office lease in the city’s urban core in 2022. The building, developed in partnership by OKO Group and Cain International, is the first stand-alone Class A+ office tower built in Miami’s Brickell Financial District in over a decade.
“At nearly seventy percent leased, 830 Brickell continues to serve as a magnate for professional service, tech and financial firms growing their presence in Miami,” Vlad Doronin says, Chairman and CEO of OKO Group. “Brickell has acted as a bellwether in the South Florida office market, and we anticipate increased demand in 830 as Miami grows into a global hub for talent, lifestyle and innovation.”
Other top-tier office users at 830 Brickell include Microsoft, New York-based insurance firm A-CAP, private equity firm Thoma Bravo, CI Financial, Marsh Insurance, AerCap, WeWork and others.
“We are excited to be at the center of this new growth of the Miami business community as we open our 21st office in such a vibrant, international market,” Yvette Ostolaza says, Sidley’s Chair of the Management Committee. “As a Miami native, I know this community well and am excited about the talented lawyers who we have already recruited to serve our M&A, private equity, financial services, tech, cybersecurity and privacy, healthcare, real estate, entertainment, sports, and media, SEC regulatory and enforcement, and global finance clients. We are excited about our new office space.”
830 Brickell was designed by renowned architecture firm Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, with interiors by Italian architecture and design company Iosa Ghini Associati. The tower’s amenities will include a rooftop bar/lounge and restaurant with menus developed alongside a three-Michelin-starred chef, a world-class health and wellness center, conference facilities, an outdoor terrace, cafés and street-level retail.
