When the need for new premises arose, Lieke contacted Bureau Toimitilat directly. Bureau was already a familiar agent as the same broker found their previous premises seven years ago.
"We contacted Mikko Kivimäki, CEO of Bureau Commercial Premises, directly because Bureau had assisted us previously. We did not search for new premises through other channels," says Ville Vyyryläinen, CEO and partner at Lieke Law Firm.
The process of searching for commercial premises proceeded smoothly without major challenges. Lieke sought flexible office spaces with sufficient work and meeting rooms, pleasant communal areas, and social facilities. It was important for the company to find premises where the office could be divided into separate client and working areas.
"The agent was already very familiar with our company and needs, so we did not attend any unnecessary viewings. The agent prepared everything for us and we simply arrived to see suitable commercial premises," Vyyryläinen explains.
The new premises were eventually found in the heart of Helsinki city centre, at Aleksanterinkatu 11. The office spaces were completely renovated to align with the Lieke brand, and the company was able to move into the new premises in August 2023.
“Successful commercial property projects often result from strong partnerships and expert individuals. Lieke Law Firm was already a familiar partner to us and has been a pleasure to collaborate with on property projects. This time, a welcome additional challenge was that the new premises were to support their rebranding. I must say the end result was impressive, and credit is due also to the design agency Rune & Berg,” says Mikko Kivimäki.
Lieke Asianajotoimisto would recommend Bureau's services to other companies. "Bureau Toimitilat is a reliable, straightforward, and approachable operator with a good understanding of clients' needs," describes Ville Vyyryläinen.
