The law firm and wealth management firm will move to DC Thomson’s Meadowside building, leasing the first floor and a section of the ground floor from the content, technology and investments business. Blackadders will have a dedicated entrance to the building from Euclid Crescent and a reception and client meeting rooms on the ground floor as well exclusive occupation of the first floor.

Emma Gray, joint managing partner of Blackadders, said: “It’s fantastic to be staying in the centre of Dundee, sharing the premises of another well-known Dundee business and an iconic building in the city.

“It’s just a stone’s throw away from our current office but it’s light years ahead in terms of facilities, comfort and technology. We can’t wait to move in.”

Blackadders’ joint managing partner Ryan McKay added: “This state-of-the-art office will complement our other Scottish premises in Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

“It shows our strong commitment to the city of Dundee and offers a bright and flexible office environment for our employees.”
