Maptician Releases 2025 Law Firm Workplace Trends Executive Report: Key Insights on Seating, Collaboration, and Technology

ATLANTA, GA — June 3, 2025 — Maptician, the leading workplace optimization platform for law firms, today announced the release of its 2025 Law Firm Workplace Trends Survey Results, offering a revealing look into how firms are navigating the ongoing transformation of the legal workplace.

Five years after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the law firm office has undergone a transformative shift. Once a default destination, the office is now a strategic tool—and firms must actively design, manage, and justify how that tool is used.

According to the survey, average occupancy across major U.S. law firms has stabilized between 55% and 60%, with Tuesdays peaking and Fridays hitting historic lows. This marks a major departure from pre-pandemic benchmarks, which often exceeded 90% in early 2020.

“The legal workplace has moved from static desks to dynamic, hybrid ecosystems,” said Maptician CEO Alaa Pasha. “This year’s survey underscores the importance of presence data, flexibility, and intentional design in turning the office into a competitive advantage—not just overhead.”

Key Findings & Trends:

• Occupancy patterns have shifted dramatically: Law firm attendance is now highly variable, with mid-week peaks and near-empty Fridays.
• Goodbye assigned desks, hello collaboration hubs: Firms are investing in hoteling, huddle rooms, and shared spaces that support meaningful in-office interaction.
• Data is driving strategy: Leading firms are turning real-time presence data and workplace analytics into actionable strategies to increase ROI and attorney engagement.

The 2025 Workplace Trends Survey highlights how firms are using technology, space, and culture to shape modern legal work. As the legal industry continues to redefine "the office," this briefing provides a timely roadmap for leaders rethinking their firm’s space strategy. Access the full results here.
