“Our firm’s commitment to downtown and the opportunity to occupy an iconic building made this move an easy decision,” said Brian Bergstrom, attorney and president of Shuttleworth & Ingersoll. “We also value the collaboration and technology opportunities that this renovated space allows.”

Shuttleworth & Ingersoll has served its clients since 1854. providing a full range of business, litigation, family, and intellectual property legal services.

Renovations of the former Gazette building honored the building’s history, drawing inspiration from pictures of the structure as it stood nearly a century ago. The exterior of the building has been restored to its original condition by enlarging window openings and uncovering the brick exterior.

Inside, the building is fully ADA accessible, with open gathering spaces that highlight the building’s historic beauty.

Shuttleworth & Ingersoll has more than 100 employees, with other primary offices in Coralville and Waterloo.
