Pro bono
Pro bono
We use our legal knowledge to promote the rule of law, improve access to justice and support organisations that help people build better lives.
A global commitment
Pro bono means providing professional services free of charge for the public good. At DLA Piper, it is part of how we use our skills to contribute to society.
Our lawyers work across borders and areas of law to help people protect their rights and support organisations working to strengthen communities. In 2025, DLA Piper delivered more than 200,000 hours of pro bono legal services globally.
Our work in Norway
In Norway, we provide free legal advice and training to our partner organisations. This helps them address legal questions and dedicate more of their resources to the people and causes they support.
All our lawyers are encouraged to contribute to pro bono work. In 2025, we delivered more than 2,000 pro bono hours in Norway.
