A Derby-based business hub has described Fishers Solicitors as a 'perfect fit' - as the Ashby law firm expands further into the East Midlands.

Fishers has opened a new office in Derby's Pride Park area.

The firm, which already has a number of Derby-based commercial and private clients, has moved into offices at Oberoi Business Hub and is already planning to take further space in line with its ongoing recruitment drive.

Fishers Solicitors' co-director and head of residential property, Amanda Payne, explained: "Having been established in Ashby for nearly 200 years and, with an office in Tamworth, we were looking for new locations in the East Midlands.

"Derby was the natural choice. This is a thriving and growing city and we were particularly keen to be based in Pride Park which continues to attract a wide range of new and growing businesses which we can support through our commercial and private client services.

"Oberoi Business Hub is also the ideal location as it is easily accessible, offers free parking for clients and has a range of further office accommodation to support our growth plans."

Oberoi Business Hub manager Jodie Brady continued: "Fishers is the perfect fit for us – a growing professional services business that requires a prestigious serviced office location and address with their sights set on growth."

Founder and managing director, Kavita Oberoi OBE, concluded: "We understand the legal world having supported a number of solicitors with our back office services including call handling, so we are delighted to welcome Fishers Solicitors to the Oberoi business community."
