When considering career advancement, it’s hard to know where to start. Our team has been helping candidates build successful legal careers for over 40 years. Whether you’re looking for lateral associate, partner, in-house counsel, or C-suite opportunities, we will be your trusted search partner.
Every situation is unique. In initial discussions, we identify your current skill set and career goals, including:
• What work excites you?
• What are your short- and long-term professional goals? Core values and priorities?
• What would be the right management + work style for you?
• How is your current employer supporting your practice?
We understand the challenges and complexity involved in your career moves. Our team works with you to craft a search strategy, informed by our market knowledge and your priorities, and we leverage our diverse client base to help you land those interview offers.
With extensive experience in counseling lateral partner and associate candidates, we help you to:
• Understand the client. We equip you with a detailed understanding of every role and client you consider, so you can determine if a match makes (or doesn’t make) sense.
• Advertise your strengths. A positive first impression is key. We work with you to craft a resume and deal sheet that clearly represent your skills and value-add.
• Interview prep. Some candidates have not interviewed since their 2L year and need a bit of practice. Our team will work through practice questions with you, provide detailed feedback, and help you to confidently navigate your interviews.
• Establish your value. It’s imperative to accurately represent your value-add. For senior attorneys, we work closely with you to craft the most effective and powerful business plans, client lists, and narratives.
We keep our candidates regularly informed about new opportunities, tailored to their skill sets and interests. Throughout the interview process, our recruitment team provides prompt, candid feedback. When you have an offer in hand, we help you navigate the path to signing, onboarding, and making the most of this new opportunity. Candidates and clients return to us for guidance and hiring support throughout their careers, which we consider the highest compliment.
Communication from the outset is vital. At the start of every search, we sit down with you to identify the key needs and qualifications for your hire — based on organizational goals, core values, and the technical skills required to excel in the particular role and your organization. Understanding your definition of success informs every subsequent step of the search process.
