SOLICITORS Mayo Wynne Baxter expanded this month with a new office at The Beehive, the original terminal building at Gatwick airport.

The Beehive opened in 1936 when it was the world’s first fully integrated airport building.

It is considered a nationally and internationally important example of airport terminal design.

The Beehive is now part of Gatwick Diamond commercial hub City Place.

This new office follows the acquisition of Stuckey Carr and Co in 2014, Forest Row firm PR Vince in October 2013 and Allen Ticehurst in East Grinstead during 2012.

Mayo Wynne Baxter now has nine offices in Sussex including long-established bases in Eastbourne, Seaford, Lewes and Brighton.

Chief Executive Chris Randall said: “The additional office extends our reach into West Sussex and is a further step towards Mayo Wynne Baxter being the dominant law firm in the county.”
