DHCP takes 20+ Sec to assign address

Hi, I am using Raspberry PI 3 model B with PIXEL gui. The DHCP service(client daemon) takes more than 20 Secs to assign the IP address :o . Is there any way to reduce the time taken?

I'm not certain I understand. Is the RPi the DHCP client or the server?

@SurferTim The R-Pi is client in this case. At the boot up its dhcpcd.service(dhcp client daemon) which takes up the time. Also since my PI would not be in a fixed network I cannot use static address as well.
