DLA Piper Recommits, Expands at DTLA’s KPMG Center

Connect Los Angeles is planned March 27th at the Hotel Indigo in DTLA. Here is where to get more information and REGISTER.

DLA Piper signed a 33,491-square-foot lease at KPMG Center in DTLA. The global law firm claimed space on three floors at Morgan Stanley’s 610,000-square-foot, 28-story tower at 550 South Hope St.

DLA Piper’s new fully-renovated space will include the entire 24th floor, with the balance to be located on the 23rd and 2nd floors of KPMG Center. The firm recently acquired Liner LLP, a Los Angeles-based boutique law firm, and will consolidate the firm into DLA Piper’s newly-remodeled and expanded offices.

NKF’s David Kluth, Aliya Coher and Brad Feld represented DLA Piper in the 10-year transaction.

“DLA Piper has enjoyed its tenancy at 550 Hope for the last 12 years, and while we explored relocating to a new location, the firm decided to remain on a long-term lease in favor of the building’s central location, convenient parking, image, and identity at compelling economics,” said Kluth.
