Government Contracts Litigation Associate

I had the pleasure of working with Darin during my transition from a government attorney to a role in private practice. Darin took the time to understand my career goals and matched me with a law firm that perfectly aligned with my skills and aspirations. Darin’s professionalism and dedication were instrumental throughout the search process. I highly recommend Darin to anyone seeking a new position.

Priya worked with me several months to land my dream job. Throughout our time working together, Priya was persistent, thoughtful, and went above and beyond to make sure I was prepared for every interview that she helped me receive. She constantly updated me of new job opportunities both posted and unposted. If you decide to work with Priya, which I highly recommend, I can guarantee she will do everything possible to find you an opportunity where you see yourself thriving. She will not only be your recruiter but biggest your ally and cheerleader through this stressful process.

There are so many reasons I would recommend working with Steven as you take the next steps in your legal career. Above all, I appreciated Steven’s knowledge, personal touch, and respect for the ways in which I wanted to shape my career as we worked together to find my next step. Steven has a deep knowledge of the legal market and an active “rolodex” of contacts who trust his judgment when he recommends candidates for open roles. These are reasons enough to entrust your next career move to Steven’s guidance, but Steven is also a joy to work with, someone who will get to know you as a person and will help bring out your best qualities as an applicant. Steven is there for you every step of the process. Lateraling can be daunting and questions undoubtedly arise. Steven was a trusted confidant and I always felt comfortable seeking his advice. He never forgets the person behind the application; in fact, he works to draw that person out so that they can put their best foot forward, confident in who they are and how they fit into a new role. Steven helped me build the confidence to take the next step in my career. He also checks in with you. You are never left hanging or waiting to learn information from him. He will keep you as informed as he is. He is your partner in the process, not someone who simply clicks “submit” when your application is ready. Perhaps most importantly, while he is a steady guide throughout the process, Steven also respects your choices and redlines and the ways in which you want to shape your career. He listens when you explain what you are looking for and he remembers details. If you want to remove particular roles from consideration because of the direction in which you are trying to drive your career, he accepts and respects those considerations. He does not push you to make a deal or accept an offer simply because it’s there. He wants the best fit for you just as much as you do. I highly recommend working with Steven to take the next step in your legal career.

Susan Belardi and Legal Placement Consultants LLC were instrumental in placing me at my current firm even amidst this COVID-19 pandemic. Susan took the time to not only get to know me in terms of my qualifications, background and experience, but she also made the effort to get to know me on a personal level.  She definitely goes far and beyond for her candidates to ensure that they are prepared and have every advantage to succeed in getting and evaluating prospective offers from employers.  In addition, her attention to detail makes this ordinarily stressful process extremely enjoyable and exciting. No other placement consultant, head hunter or recruiter that I have worked with in the past has ever taken as much time and put in as much effort to my career advancement as Susan and Legal Placement Consultants. It is evident that Susan truly cares about her clients and her candidates in finding the best fit for both.
