From the moment I accepted an internship at the firm almost eight years ago, I felt I had become a part of the 'DLA family'.

Every aspect of work here is the result of teamwork and interns and trainees can expect to be given responsibility and the chance to work on cutting-edge matters since day one.

For me, working at DLA Piper translated into the possibility to gain unparalleled professional experience in white-collar crimes, investigations, and anti-corruption and trade compliance, areas of practice that are rarely seen in other firms.

While giving me the chance to challenge myself in this international work environment, DLA Piper also allowed me to put my skills to use within the DLA Piper's Responsible Business initiatives, enabling me to provide my (small) contribution to address pressing challenges such as the promotion of children's rights, climate conservation and the access of refugees to justice.
