DLA Piper moves house to save on office rent DLA Piper's Sydney office has unveiled plans to slash one of its biggest fixed costs - rent - in a move the firm believes will help ensure that its charge-out rates remain competitive. By moving from its offices in Elizabeth Street, the Sydney office says its total annual occupancy-related costs will decline by 39 per cent. It will move from an 8000sq m office to 6000sq m of Charter Hall's office tower at 1 Martin Place.
