DLA Piper announced Wednesday that it has acquired Liner LLP, a Los Angeles-based boutique firm focused on clients in real estate, entertainment, new media and private equity restructuring. The deal will give DLA Piper 60 additional lawyers in Southern California.

Liner is a relatively young firm, founded in 1996, with an entrepreneurial business model that at one point included about 15 percent of the firm’s work being handled on an alternative or contingency fee basis. It is well-known for its entertainment industry practice, which has represented clients including Miramax Film Corp., Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. and Hilton Grand Vacations Co.
