Yingke London Law Firm moves into historic office at 1 King William Street in London's financial heart

Yingke (London) Law Firm has relocated to a new office at 1 King William Street, a prestigious and historic building situated in the heart of London’s financial district. This move marks a significant milestone in Yingke’s continued global expansion, as it grows its footprint and elevates its services in one of the world’s leading financial centres.


1 King William Street is an iconic building steeped in history. It was constructed in the early 20th century as a banking and commercial building, designed by William Campbell-Jones and Alex Smithers . It has gone through a major renovation project recently, which reinvented this 1920’s Grade II Listed building to create a high-specification office space. The newly renovated building has preserved its neoclassical facade while offers modern amenities to meet contemporary business needs. Its roof top garden also provides stunning views of the City of London.
Its location is adjacent to the Bank of England and the Royal Exchange and home to the headquarters of numerous global financial institutions, investment firms, and insurance companies. It is a centre of innovation and economic activity, where business decisions reverberate across global markets. This prime location enables Yingke to foster closer relationships with financial clients and industry partners, facilitating seamless collaboration and offering unparalleled convenience.


The relocation to 1 King William Street underscores Yingke (London) Law Firm's commitment to providing top-tier legal solutions and personalised client service in a setting that encapsulates both prestige and professionalism. The firm looks forward to welcoming clients, partners, and colleagues to its new office space and continuing to foster strong relationships within the UK’s business and legal communities.


Europe is a key strategic region for Yingke’s international development. The firm has recently opened nine directly-operated overseas offices of Yingke Law Firm in the UK, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Hungary and Portugal. They are a key part of Yingke’s “Global One-Hour Legal Service Ecosystem”, which provides clients worldwide with professional services including law, accounting, taxation, consulting, intellectual property, asset management, investment and financing, mergers and acquisitions, business account management, ESG, and others. With extensive range of expertise covering industries such as infrastructure, energy resources, trade, agriculture, mining, cultural tourism, sports, science and technology innovation, digital economy, education, industrial parks, and government investment attraction, the Yingke “One-Hour Ecosystem” thrives to achieve clients’ needs and objectives with a multi-jurisdiction and multi-disciplinary professional service team worldwide within one hour.


"We are excited to establish our presence in this iconic building at 1 King William Street at the heart of the City of London. It reflects Yingke’s commitment to continuing expanding globally and strengthening its capabilities to service clients," said Shu Qi, managing partner at Yingke (London) Law Firm.
"Our new office combines the best of the past and present, reflecting our commitment to innovation and excellence in legal practice.
