The firm, currently located in about 80,000 square feet in the downtown Riverfront Plaza tower, plans to relocate to its new space in August 2015 following renovations.
“We are excited to have finalized our plans for our new home in downtown Richmond,” LeClairRyan CEO David C. Freinberg said in a statement. He said the smaller space will foster “cohesion, collaboration and teamwork.”

Parmenter is the center’s owner and manager.
