Amata Law Office Suites Blog

My life revolves around music and sports. Literally. When I am not training competitively for Team USA in the Pentathlon and Triathlon, I am instructing music and running my Guitar Cities music schools in Chicago, San Francisco, New York, and London.

Shared offices offer a wealth of flexibility that can’t be matched by a traditional office lease. With spaces that allow you to scale up or down quickly, amenities and benefits exclusive to members, and a variety of locations to suit your needs, shared offices can meet the changing demands of most businesses. It is only a matter of finding the right one.

Although shared offices are a full-time home for many businesses, others use them as a part-time alternative to their primary workspace – typically a home office. This not only allows home-based professionals to have a reputable downtown address, but also gives them a modern, highly accessible workspace where they can host clients and take advantage of support services that can assist with the day-to-day operations of their business.

Shared offices are a permanent home for some businesses, while others view them as more of a stepping stone to a space of their own. After outgrowing their office at Amata’s 161 N. Clark location, DSML tapped Amata’s in-house brokerage team, Amata Realty Group, to help the firm find and negotiate a lease for a larger space that could better accommodate their growing business.

It was this full spectrum of services that appealed to Brad Bennett & Marc Bangser, a pair of attorneys who, after working together at a larger firm, decided to start their own practice last year, becoming one of the first tenants at Amata’s newest shared office center at 150 S. Wacker Drive.
