This is why Dentons is organized to offer more than legal insight; we help you find business solutions, in a seamless fashion, across the globe.
We are polycentric.
Dentons has no single headquarters or dominant national culture. Our polycentric, in-and-of-the community approach means we are always a local firm as well as a global firm.
We are global. We are the largest law firm in the world.
With offices in more than 200 locations across 80+ countries, Dentons can support organizations everywhere they do business. With more than 20,000 people around the world, we have unique breadth, depth, and diversity of talent to serve the needs of our clients.

Since our inception, we have always been a firm on the cutting edge of disruption and innovation in the legal profession. A firm that will always be where the profession is headed, not where it has been.
What is your vision for the digital and sustainable world of tomorrow?
ESG issues are currently at the forefront of corporate thinking, as a source of risk but also opportunity. The regulation around ESG is coming thick and fast and finding global answers to what is required, market by market, is something Dentons is uniquely equipped to help with. We make those answers available digitally, streamlined, transparent and dynamic. We understand that addressing the ESG agenda requires cross-practice perspectives to be integrated digitally and solutions to be holistic.
What values are important when it comes to the utilization of artificial intelligence?
Artificial Intelligence is one of the most transformative technologies that we have ever experienced and the opportunities to implement AI solutions in business and everyday life seem endless. AI is a critical issue for all organizations across every sector and geography, where responsibility sits for good governance, regulation and compliance. Dentons supports its clients to establish best practices and derive the full benefits of AI, in an ethical, compliant, and meaningful way.
What potentials and skills can your company bring to the table in order to shape the future of AI together with the Digital Generation?
Dentons is uniquely positioned to bring cross-functional expertise on the projects we support, including legal expertise and talent across practices and markets, data analysts, developers, project managers, legal engineers, as well as both ESG legal teams and global and regional Innovation teams to support the development of new solutions within agile frameworks.
