Von Briesen & Roper s.c., a Milwaukee-based law firm, announced it has begun a search for a new and larger headquarters in the city.
The law firm currently occupies two and one-quarter floors at the 411 Building in downtown Milwaukee. The company’s existing lease with the 411 Building expires in 2013. Von Briesen has been a tenant in the 411 Building since 1985.
Randall Crocker, president and chief executive officer of von Briesen, said the firm has engaged the services of broker Terence McMahon and the Boerke Company to assist in the search for new and larger office space in Milwaukee. Boerke also is based in the 411 Building, located at 411 E. Wisconsin Ave.
Von Briesen, in conjunction with Boerke, has released its request for proposals to both existing Class A buildings and developers who are interested in building a new office tower in Milwaukee. The firm is seeking up to 75,000 square feet with additional available space for growth.
"Our firm has enjoyed continued growth and we are pleased and excited about the available opportunities in Milwaukee. Our core beliefs of providing unparalleled service, caring for our people and striving to be among the best in the areas in which we practice has resonated with our clients and our community," Crocker said. "We are committed to Milwaukee as our corporate headquarters and we are enthusiastic about this market for our growth."
Von Briesen is a 105-year-old law firm with more than 100 attorneys in offices in Milwaukee, Madison, Racine and Mequon.
