Can a U-shaped desk fit in a smaller office?

Compact U-shaped desk configurations do exist — the smallest practical setups use a 60” main surface with 42”–48” returns, which fits in a room as small as 10’x10’. That said, you’ll still need 48”–54” behind the desk for the chair to push back and the user to get in and out comfortably. Measure before you order — tight rooms can work, but the clearance requirement is non-negotiable. See what's available at FindOfficeFurniture.com or call 888-719-4960 for quick answers.
