DLA Piper launches Legal Delivery Centre in Germany: the details

DLA Piper has appointed partners Dr Michael Zollner (PICTURED LEFT) and Dr Carl Renner (PICTURED RIGHT) to establish and lead the Legal Delivery Centre (LDC) in Germany from September 1, 2024, which is part of DLA Piper’s Law& for disruptive legal, technology and business advisory solutions.

Zollner and Renner will join from Pinsent Masons, where they were co-heads of Vario, focusing on delivering innovative managed legal services as well as flexible staffing solutions for clients. Both combine many years of experience advising clients on commercial and technology law and innovative legal solutions.

Underpinned by the firm’s international innovation strategy, DLA Piper’s newly created LDC in Germany combines traditional legal advice with innovative and technical solutions to deliver holistic managed legal services. The LDC will make advisory services even more efficient for projects with different levels of complexity, thereby adding considerable value to clients. By offering services such as legal project management, electronic document management, technology solutions and flexible staffing, DLA Piper’s portfolio will be aligned even more closely to the evolving needs of clients.     

“The establishment of the LDC as a cost-efficient and technology-supported basis for supporting our clients is a further building block of our growth and innovation strategy in Germany,” says Dr Kai Bodenstedt, co-managing partner of DLA Piper in Germany together with Dr Martin Haller. “We are delighted that Dr Carl Renner and Dr Michael Zollner, two highly regarded partners with many years of experience in the field of managed legal services, will be building up this area in Germany together with their team and we warmly welcome them,” says Dr Martin Haller.

“Certain tasks of legal departments also require economic and technical understanding and can be completed even faster and more efficiently with innovative tools, optimised processes and appropriate resources. This is precisely why we offer clients in Germany and internationally a real competitive advantage with DLA Piper’s Law& solutions,” add Dr Carl Renner and Dr Michael Zollner.
