Law Firm Opens 60,000 SF Office In Miami

Sidley Austin LLP, a 160-year-old elite $3.5 billion global law firm with 21 offices across 4 continents, announced the opening of its new 60,000 square foot Miami office located in 830 Brickell Plaza, one of the city’s most prominent commercial towers in the heart of South Florida’s Financial District.

The new office, spanning three floors, underscores Sidley’s continued investment in South Florida and its long-term commitment to clients in the region.

“Our growing long-term space at 830 Brickell reflects the confidence we have in South Florida as a global business hub, the support of clients, and the talent we have recruited in the last three years.” said Yvette Ostolaza, Sidley’s Management Committee Chair and a native Miamian. “This office embodies who we are as a firm: innovative, connected, and committed to delivering exceptional results for our global clients, many which are based in South Florida. We are grateful for their support.”

Since entering the Miami market in 2022, Sidley has quickly expanded its team of attorneys and business professionals leading transaction, litigation, regulatory, finance, tax, investigations, real estate, capital markets and sports and entertainment lawyers who advise on national and cross-border transactions, investigations, and high-stakes disputes.

Today, the office has more than 90 attorneys and business professionals serving approximately 700 clients on nearly 1,400 matters spanning many industries, such as private equity, infrastructure, healthcare, sports and entertainment, manufacturing, cyber, corporate, tech, hospitality, insurance, financial institutions, blockchain, and cryptocurrency.

The new workplace is designed to support this growth, offering a sophisticated, technology-forward environment that enhances collaboration and client service.

Sidley occupies floors 41 through 43 of 830 Brickell, a 57-story, LEED-certified tower.

“Miami represents a significant growth story for Sidley,” said Beatriz Azcuy, co-managing partner of the Miami office and head of the Miami real estate group. “This new office highlights our momentum and allows us to deepen our presence, serve our clients more effectively, and contribute meaningfully to the local community.”

 

“This signature office marks an exciting milestone in our ongoing investment in Miami and our vision for expansion in the market,” continued Michael Gordon, co-managing partner of the Miami office and Executive Committee member. “It’s designed to support our clients, our people and Sidley’s long-term growth in the region.”

Sidley’s new Miami office is a key component of the firm’s strategic footprint across major financial and commercial centers, reinforcing its ability to advise clients wherever opportunity arises.
