OUR CULTURE

Being at Dentons means not being restricted by geography. Our polycentric approach gives us the vantage point to champion everything that makes our people, them.

Some of our values include:

  • Inclusion and Diversity: We value the diverse perspectives and experiences you bring, whilst we see inclusivity as an active responsibility we all share. This value is sponsored by our CEO, Jeremy Cohen, and shaped by our people via our diversity networks.
  • CSR and Pro Bono: Success is seeing gain differently. It’s not just about you and it’s not about us either. Last year our teams contributed 17,000 hours to pro bono work, and collectively fundraised £73,502 for charity.
  • Innovation: Here at Dentons, innovation isn’t something that sits in isolation, all of our lawyers are expected to spend time working and engaging with innovation.
