Client Services 
Our law firm clients have come to greatly appreciate the rigorous screening that we employ in evaluating lateral associate candidates. Even in overheated market conditions, when there is a strong temptation to pass along “warm bodies,” we continue to employ strict standards in evaluating lateral associate candidates for our law firm clients. As a full service search firm, we have access to the highest quality associate candidates across the full spectrum of practice areas. We know where to look, and what to look for.
From our beginnings as the market leader in providing in-house search services to the technology sector, we have expanded our in-house search services to include industries across the spectrum. Whether a company is contemplating hiring its first General Counsel or adding to an already well-established department, we help our corporate clients find the right candidates and develop a legal department infrastructure that serves their companies’ needs. The strategic questions that confront every company are the ones we help our corporate clients grapple with everyday. Should we continue to outsource our IP legal support or bring it in-house? Do we need in-house corporate governance capability? Are we ready for a full-time in-house employment attorney? We partner with our corporate clients to the find the right people and structure a legal department that responds to the particular needs of their company.
