There are many legal firms that have led the way with flexible working, and DLA Piper is one of them.

There is the opportunity to work remotely, on-site, or a hybrid option.
DLA Piper understands that offering flexible options gives lawyers the ability to balance work and personal commitments, which DLA Piper believes will allow them to attract and retain diverse talent.
