Who we are
DLG Legal Services is a law firm created to help customers with legal solutions and to give them peace of mind, now and in the future. We offer legal services that are accessible and inclusive and are there to support our customers every step of the way.
DLG Legal Services is a legal services business, wholly owned by Aviva plc but operating independently as a law firm that is fully regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority.
We are home to around 370 staff who provide a range of services including litigation services for personal injury, inheritance and property claims as well as for contract and employment disputes. DLG Legal Services also provides an expert, well established Legal Advice line.
Our people
We’re looking at new ways to develop our people and give the skills and expertise to help the business thrive.
We have put in place a structure that encourages personal development and provides a clear pathway to progress.
We think it is important to provide opportunities to the right people and we’re really proud of our six year apprenticeship scheme for school leavers.
The scheme takes them from their A-levels to qualifying as a Solicitor. And they get a law degree along the way!

Benefits
When it comes to rewards, we’ve got the whole package
Our purpose to be with you today, for a better tomorrow is a promise we make to colleagues as well as our customers. We’re here to help you build a rewarding future every way we can.
- Our Pension Scheme - We offer a generous pension, with up to 14% employer contributions, depending on what you put in.
- Our Voluntary Shares - You can share in our success by joining our Matching Share Plan (MSP) and Save As You Earn (SAYE) scheme.
- Your Extras - Take advantage of hundreds of fantastic discounts and cash back offers from popular retailers with instant vouchers, reloadable cards, cashback and special deals.
- Colleague discounts and offers - Get discounted rates (for friends and family too) on our own products, such as car, home, life and critical illness insurance, plus national and local offers from various retailers. Choose from a range of competitively-priced benefits – like private medical and life insurance – to suit your lifestyle. They’re deducted straight from your pay – often with tax savings – and some can be extended to your immediate family too.
- Your wellbeing - Get free access to a wealth of resources that will help look after your physical, mental, and financial wellbeing, including company funded Group Income Protection, Aviva Digicare+ (a dedicated app which connects you to a digital GP, mental health counsellor and nutritionist), and the popular Headspace app.
- Time Off - Work full time and, on top of the usual bank holidays, you’ll get at least 25 days’ holiday (with the option to buy or sell up to 5 days). We also offer a range of other paid leave options – family leave, support for sickness absence and volunteering, for instance.
- Smart and flexible working - We support flexible working wherever we can. Much depends on the role you’re in and the needs of the business at the time. This can be discussed at interview stage and with your line manager.
