DLA Piper is a global business law firm with lawyers located in more than 40 countries throughout the Americas, EMEA and the Asia Pacific. We help clients succeed through innovative and pragmatic legal solutions. Leading businesses across the world trust us with their most complex matters and rely on our seamless cross-border prowess and sector knowledge. Wherever you are, and whatever your challenge, we speak your language.
IT'S IN OUR DNA
Unlike many law firms, DLA Piper is organised to provide clients with a range of essential business advice, not just on large scale mergers and acquisitions and banking deals but also on people and employment, commercial dealings, litigation, insurance, real estate, IT, intellectual property, plans for restructuring and tax. It has a comprehensive, award winning client relationship management program and the brand is built upon local legal excellence and global capability.
Life moves fast at DLA Piper, and with good reason. We help the world's top companies with their business-critical issues. Many of the deals we work on are complex and challenging – transcending not just practice areas, but borders, languages and legal systems.
In everything we do we're connected with our People, our Clients, and our Communities. We live by four values: Be Supportive, Be Bold, Be Collaborative and Be Exceptional.
As a firm, we never standstill. We think nimbly and seize opportunities. We're ambitious and are never afraid to innovate. So, if you possess these qualities too, there could be a bright future for you at DLA Piper.
THE OPPORTUNITY
We provide cutting-edge learning and development programs, and an opportunity to work alongside some of the best legal minds around.
We are looking for applicants to take part in an 8-week clerkship during the following period:
Summer Intake: November – December 2024 and January – February 2025.
As a summer clerk, you can expect a varied experience both in and outside the office. You will work in a creative, dynamic environment with some of the best legal professionals in the world, gaining first-hand
experience doing real legal work.
The clerkship is 8 weeks in duration and will commence with a two-day national induction program in the Sydney office. The induction program will give you the opportunity to hear from the firm's senior leaders, to participate in professional skills training, to attend networking events and to participate in responsible business activities.
All 2024/25 summer clerks will automatically be assessed for a 2026 Graduate position. Joining us as a clerk is your best pathway to a graduate position with DLA Piper.
Applications close 7 July.
Apply now and be a part of our future.
