Case Study

DLA Piper Middle East

 

 

DLA Piper became one of the largest legal service providers in the world in 2005 through a merger of unprecedented scope in the legal sector.

 

While large in scale, the merger strategy was simple – to create an international legal practicecapable of taking care of the most important legal needs of clients wherever they do business. We wanted our clients to rely on receiving the right service for their particular matter, whether requiring seamless coordination across multiple jurisdictions or delivery in a single location.

 

With 3,500 lawyers located in 29 countries and 67 offices throughout Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the US, DLA Piper is positioned to help companies with all their legal needs anywhere in the world.

 

 

 

In the UAE, DLA Piper were recognised for their efforts put into place to ensure energy saving, sustainability and low carbon emissions during a companywide green initiative. In May 2009 they won the prestigious Facilities Management Magazine Sustainable Initiative Award.

 

Accepting the award on behalf of DLA Piper, Elaine Kelly, DLA Piper Regional Facilities Manager in Dubai, said: "DLA Piper's corporate responsibility programme focuses on creating sustainable, empowering initiatives throughout the Middle East. We are committed to reduce our environmental impact and conduct our business in a responsible manner."
