Kate is one of the best recruiters out there! She is extremely knowledgeable about the SF legal market and completely upfront about what is realistic based on the current market and your experience. I would highly recommend working with her!

Priya gets it done. Regardless of how strong you are as a candidate, Priya adds value to your search in ways you may not appreciate until you're in the process. She provides a personalized strategy, impeccable organization skills and responsiveness, a sterling reputation among law firm contacts, invaluable insights, dedicated interview prep and so much more. On top of that, she does her job with grace and integrity. When I had an offer in hand and was considering all options, Priya did NOT pressure me to accept the offer, and even suggested I might want to stay put if I felt a certain way. This was against her immediate self interest and speaks volumes about the kind of person and professional she is. Finally, Priya is so down to Earth and a true joy to work with. I can't recommend her enough.

Dale has been fantastic to work with. Dale and his team were extremely well versed and networked with various firms and their practice groups. Most importantly, Dale truly cares about finding the right fit and facilitating a smooth/enjoyable transition. I would recommend Dale to any colleague and I’m so glad to have had his expertise and help.

I had a pleasant experience working with Summer. I worked with Summer over the span of a couple months and Summer reached out to me immediately when a position that fit my desires and experience opened up. Summer was very responsive and I believe her industry connections coupled with her law firm relationships lead to a favorable outcome for my transition. Based on our conversations, Summer told me that I would be in great hands at my current firm and she was right. I trust Summer’s advocacy and word and would work with Summer again in the future.

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.

Alan is not just a recruiter to me but my trusted confidant and friend. Alan has worked with me on two lateral moves and each time he had my complete trust. Alan earned my trust by demonstrating that he was listening to me--something I value highly. When I was planning my first lateral move, other recruiters tried to sell me what they had and not what I wanted from my next firm. But Alan provided me with options that fit my requirements. Alan is also dependable. Besides the big things like interview prep and offer negotiation, Alan kept his commitment in even the most routine but important things, like keeping me informed, calling at the scheduled time, and providing me with detailed data to help me with my decisions. Alan candidly discussed the options I had and was never pushy. Advice he gave me about my options was consistent with the advice I got from several seasoned lawyers. Finally, at offer time, Alan zealously advocated for the requests that I had for my future employers. So when I thought about another lateral move, Alan was my first and only call. For all these reasons, I highly recommend Alan to attorneys looking for a lateral opportunity.

Khurram helped me with a lateral move in the IP litigation space. Overall, he is talented, knowledgeable, and understanding. He takes the time to understand where you're looking to improve, put together a plan, and guide you through each step. I'd strongly recommend him for anyone looking to understand their options as they move forward in their career. Most importantly, I felt that Khurram was my advocate throughout the process. He gives you the space to consider your options without any pressure, and he advocates for your best interests when talking to firms. Keep it up, Khurram!

Lavinia is a great recruiter to work with. She tried to understand my needs and was patient while working with me as it took us several months before she could find me the firm that suites my needs the best. I couldn’t have asked her to find me the better place to work for. I’m very happy with the transition and the hard work she provided. I highly recommend working with her.
