Maria Krol Stosz joined Latham & Watkins LLP in District of Columbia
Rhea reached out to me having clearly done her homework on my background and spoke with confidence and experience about my small and relatively niche area of law. From the outset, I was impressed with her candor and clarity — she reached out to me about a specific role and shared strong reasons for why it would be a good fit for me. At each step in the process, she was consistently available, clear-eyed, and for someone who is relatively junior in the field and who not necessarily looking to make a move, extremely supportive and helpful in preparing for interviews and understanding the lateral process. More than anything, Rhea’s ethos is one of a counselor and advocate: she wants you to succeed. She treats every client like the only client, and offers a comprehensive service, from discussing firm fit, interview fit, and onboarding logistics. As a result of working with Rhea, I was able to move to a firm where I will be doing 100% of the specialized work I am primarily interested in, and found a team that matches my energy and desires for mentorship and growth. I can confidently say that without Rhea, I would never have found this opportunity! Thank you, Rhea!
Shira Huberfeld joined Latham & Watkins LLP in New York City
I highly recommend Alan. He listened to my specific wants and preferences and tailored his suggestions for me. He took all the stress out of the lateral process and was a useful sounding board as I considered the next move. His deep knowledge of the various firms and practice groups within the firms was a real difference maker for me.
Riley S. joined Latham & Watkins LLP in District of Columbia
I recently worked with Khurram Naik at Freshwater Counsel during my transition to a new law firm. As an associate looking to lateral positions, I faced the challenge of finding a firm that matched my career goals and values. Khurram's expertise and strategic approach were crucial in helping me navigate the legal job market and secure a position that aligns with my aspirations. Khurram took the time to understand my needs and provided tailored opportunities that fit my professional objectives. His insights into the market and proactive communication kept me well-informed and prepared throughout the interview process. I appreciated his availability to answer questions and provide honest feedback, which made the experience much more manageable. Khurram's professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication were evident in every interaction. I am grateful for his support and would recommend his services to anyone seeking a career change in the legal field. His guidance made a significant difference in my job search, and I am pleased with the outcome.
Avery Rux joined Latham & Watkins LLP in Los Angeles
Ed went above and beyond helping me find a new position. I don’t think I would have been hired without his help updating my resume, preparing for interviews and researching the target firm. What I really appreciated was that I never felt pressured to take a position that wasn’t right for me. He felt like an advisor, not a salesman, which is a hugely important quality in a recruiter. I don’t think you can do better if you’re looking for help finding a new firm!
Aaron K. Tso joined Latham & Watkins LLP in Los Angeles
Priya proved to be an invaluable resource in facilitating my lateral move in 2021. While I initially sought her assistance for a specific targeted position, Priya went above and beyond, helping me secure competitive offers from peer firms that ultimately resulted in attractive opportunities for me. Her support extended throughout the entire interview process, providing essential background information on my interviewers and leveraging insights gained from her experience with previous clients. Additionally, Priya's guidance was instrumental in navigating a challenging conflicts waiver process, demonstrating her exceptional expertise and assistance.
Tanner Wiethorn joined Latham & Watkins LLP in Houston
Ed was absolutely fantastic. When I was strongly considering new employment, Ed reached out and explained a new opportunity to me. He provided great insight into the firm, was very responsive and courteous throughout the entire process, and really went to bat for me during the negotiations. Moreover, his prep for the multiple interviews was key to focusing on what the firm was looking for and really gave me an edge and comfortability going in to those meetings. Beyond the substantive work, I think what sets Ed really apart is the time he took to slow things down and make sure that I was comfortable with the move and that the position was right for me, which I really appreciated. In the end, I got the job and I am very happy with the decision and I don't think I would be here without Ed's help. I can't recommend him enough!
Jose Barragan-Monge joined Latham & Watkins LLP in Orange County
Dale is fantastic!! He knows the ins and outs of the legal market in Orange County. He is incredibly knowledgeable and informative, and makes himself available throughout the entire process. Dale is extremely responsive and takes the time to learn about you and your personal goals for your career. Dale's method is to focus on his clients' needs and desires, and he always prioritizes your ultimate goal. This process takes time and Dale always provides updates along the way to make sure that you always feel informed. It was truly a pleasure working with Dale and I would definitely recommend working with him!
Jess Hemstreet joined Latham & Watkins LLP in Bay Area
Ed was absolutely pivotal to my lateral search and I cannot imagine going through the process without him. Not only did he bring a wealth of industry and market knowledge, he was consistently available, excited to help with all aspects of the search, and genuinely concerned with getting me the best fit possible. Ed goes above and beyond connecting attorneys to firms. He takes a hands on approach to preparing application materials, prepping for interviews and strategizing about offers. In addition, his wealth of connections meant that he was always ready to give me helpful insights about particular office culture and reputation, things that are difficult to discern without contacts at a given office. He made what felt like a daunting process, smooth and effortless, and ultimately helped me get offers from several of my dream firms in a short amount of time. I have recommended Ed to many close friends and colleagues and I will continue to do so.
Nitesh Daryanani joined Latham & Watkins LLP in San Francisco
Kate is a great legal recruiter—she is very familiar with law firms in the Bay Area and was a great resource during my transition. She provided helpful advice when I was contemplating a change and during the interview process. Her approach to recruiting as “matchmaking” earned my trust and I was extremely satisfied with the result.
