Whether you’re a firm searching for a lawyer or a lawyer seeking your next opportunity, we have the connections and experience in D.C. to find you the right fit.
If there’s a perfect place to partner with experienced legal recruiters, it’s Washington, D.C. The District of Columbia has the highest number of lawyers per capita in the U.S.—roughly nine times higher than New York City. That’s about one lawyer for every 40 residents.
This abundance can make it difficult for companies and firms to find the best candidates.
