DAC Beachcroft is a leading international legal business of more than 3,000 people across offices in the UK, Eire, Europe, Latin America, North America and Asia Pacific.

The firm’s purpose is to help clients and colleagues succeed, creating sustainable value. Its vision is to be recognised for its insight and outstanding commitment to clients.

DACB’s teams of legal experts work in their chosen market sectors for international, institutional, private and government clients. They combine in-depth sector knowledge with astute commercial awareness and global reach, providing clients with a comprehensive advisory, claims, dispute resolution, regulatory and transactional capability.

Global reach:

In the UK, DACB has one of the most comprehensive UK legal networks, operating from 11 locations: Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester, Newcastle, Newport and Southampton.

The firm has a strong European presence, with legal experts supporting clients across a wide range of sectors from offices in Dublin, Madrid, Paris, Milan and Rome, as well as Germany, where the firm has a cooperation agreement in place with BLD Bach Langheid Dallmayr, Germany's market-leading insurance and liability law firm.

With market-leading insurance and dispute resolution practices in Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Miami and Peru, DACB is uniquely placed to advise throughout Latin America, supported in particular by the firm’s offices in London and Madrid. Additionally the firm has developed a close working relationship in Brazil with Demarest Advogados, a full-service firm operating across all areas of commercial legal practice and with BLP in Central America.

In December 2024, DACB announced further international expansion, this time in the United States, with new offices in New York and Los Angeles. The firm also has an office in Hong Kong and also in Singapore, which is a fully integrated part of the firm’s global team, providing both domestic and international support through its association with Incisive Law, in particular to insurance clients. The firm also has a close relationship with Malaysian law firm Gan Partnership, based in Kuala Lumpur.

DACB is proud to be a founding member of Legalign Global, a closely integrated alliance of four law firms focused on the requirements of the international insurance market, operating from Germany, Canada and the USA, as well as the UK.
