DLA Piper invests in the latest technology and tools, which, among other things, provide you with easy, anywhere, anytime access to the firm’s network and any document, file, e-mail or message you need. All of our lawyers are given communications tools, including smart phones and Wi-Fi-ready laptops, which allow you to stay connected 24/7, anywhere in the world.

We recently introduced new state-of-the-art meeting technology heralded by The National Law Journal as "the future of law firm communication." Known as TelePresence, this technology allows us to meet firm members and clients virtually, thus eliminating the environmental consequences of travel.

Communication. Clear and timely information-sharing among lawyers and clients is critical to delivery of peerless legal services. As such, DLA Piper ensures that its lawyers have essential solutions such as VPN access, fully featured extranets, electronic filing of court briefs and video conferencing to achieve maximum efficiency.

Collaboration. Our secure CollaborativeEdge Web site lets clients and DLA Piper lawyers manage and share project information instantly. As an early adopter of collaborative technology, we have created a system with a virtual, global approach to managing cases that spans all legal practice areas and provides a feature-rich collaborative environment.

Consistency. To take advantage of the vast knowledge and expertise within our firm, we have built an array of databases and portals that allow lawyers to find and reuse best-practice examples and relevant work products, as well as locate people with recent experience in various types of matters, areas of law and industries.

Technology geared for success: that’s the commitment DLA Piper makes to our lawyers and clients every day.
