About us

Our culture and working environment is one of flexibility and individuality. People feel comfortable being themselves at DLA Phillips Fox.

We are also known for our genuine commitment to balancing our people’s commitment to the firm with their life outside work.

We are from diverse backgrounds yet we share a commitment to excellence in legal practice and client services. Our goal through the recruitment process is to determine whether we will enjoy working with you but, more importantly, will you thrive and enjoy working with us and our clients.

Not only are we technically excellent at what we do − we enjoy our work and our clients like working with us. We are known for our down-to-earth, practical and open approach to building relationships with our clients and with each other.

We focus on teamwork – across our network of eight offices in Australia and New Zealand and globally, as part of our exclusive alliance with DLA Piper, one of the largest legal services organisations in the world.

Many in our community are unable to afford legal services. We believe that lawyers should work to improve the legal system and the community’s access to it. By providing pro bono legal assistance, DLA Phillips Fox assists in improving access to justice. All our people are encouraged to participate in our Pro Bono and Community programs. It’s part of our firm culture. For more information, visit Community.
