Southeast Financial is home to 26 law firms. The property owner announced another round of planned renovations in March.

“The expansion of DLA Piper within the building is indicative of the economic improvement that has been taking place in Miami, as professional services firms have expanded into the market over the years and continue to experience healthy growth,” Cartwright said. — Eric Kalis
