Wyre Forest-based law firm mfg Solicitors LLP (mfg) has signed a long-term agreement to relocate their headquarters into one of Kidderminster's most iconic buildings.

The firm, who have occupied their existing offices in Worcester Street for nearly 50 years, will complete their exciting relocation this summer to the imposing Adam House, a stunning neo classical red brick building on Kidderminster's Birmingham Road. 

mfg has secured a deal on the three-storey premises which will provide over 14,000 square feet of office accommodation for around 70 of the firm's employees. Staff will relocate in early summer to allow for the completion of an extensive refurbishment programme on the 0.67 acre site. 

The work will be project managed by Kidderminster-based property investment company Gemini Properties, the owners of Adam House.

Maynard Burton, Chairman of mfg said; "We have a long association with Kidderminster so we're delighted to be moving to our new headquarters. Adam House is one of the most prestigious buildings in the town and will be the flagship for our future. 

"Our current offices in the town centre no longer fit with the firm's vision for the years ahead and we require premises that will benefit us and our clients in the long term. Adam House fits the bill. It is easily accessible, has plenty of parking space, excellent transport links and the flexibility to house our growing number of employees. We're an ambitious, successful firm and when completed our new offices will act as a focal point for clients from across the Midlands and beyond."

Mr Burton added; "As the largest and oldest law firm in the county, we are excited about the move. It's a project that will ultimately bring more people into Kidderminster and in turn, help support the local economy. It represents a new, exciting chapter in the history of mfg."

Tim Hopkins, joint Managing Director of Gemini Properties commented; "This exciting regeneration project, which compliments mfg's long standing heritage, will reinforce them as the county's leading law firm. Mfg have been completely engaged in the project to ensure that Adam House is finished to its original standard while bringing the building up to today's regulations. 

"We are using contractors and suppliers from across Worcestershire to complete this exciting project, making it a truly local success." 

Andrew Hopkins, joint Managing Director of Gemini Properties concluded; "Both Adam House and mfg compliment our global investment portfolio. We are currently investing heavily in Australia but it's great to be completing such a great deal at home and on our doorstep."
