DLA Piper is a leading business legal services organisation with over 3,700 lawyers in offices throughout Asia, Europe, the Middle East and the US. Our reach is global but our focus is local.

Locally, we have been providing legal services to the Yorkshire business community for over 200 years and the Leeds and Sheffield offices play a crucial role in DLA Piper's national and international success.

We act for a significant proportion of Yorkshire's top 500 companies, as well as advising national and international clients.

The Yorkshire offices of DLA Piper offer legal support over a range of disciplines. Over 69 partners and 182 lawyers provide advice on key business areas including corporate, real estate, technology media and commercial, restructuring, litigation, regulatory, finance, projects, employment, pensions and benefits.

The Yorkshire Corporate Group topped the local deals table by a considerable margin, completing 130 deals in 2007, worth over £9bn.

The real estate team in Leeds and Sheffield have been equally busy working on high profile developments in the region and beyond.

Much of the work of the offices has been for existing Yorkshire clients who have enjoyed a long relationship with us - organisations such as Southern Cross Healthcare, Qhotels, Bradford and Bingley, Sytner, Firth Rixson Ltd, Sheffield Forgemasters and Keepmoat. Their loyalty is true client endorsement.

We are committed to contributing to the fabric of our region and actively support and participate in a number of local community, charitable and business organisations including Leeds Legal, Leeds Cares, Connect Yorkshire, Marketing Leeds and the Leeds Financial Services Initiative.
