    Ethan Cruz joined Jackson Lewis’s San Francisco office in the Labor & Employment group.

    I worked with Summer on my lateral associate move this year, and I am very happy I did. She is amazing to work with and has incredible insight into the legal market. Summer was there every step of the way. She helped me research prospective firms, prep for interviews, and navigate each stage of the transition. She is very responsive, genuine, and takes the time to truly understand what you're looking for. I highly recommend Summer to any attorney considering a move.

    Priya is incredible. She made the job hunting process much less stressful and provided valuable advice tailored to my needs and goals. She was diligent, responsive, informative, and honest. If you are looking to lateral, I highly recommend working with Priya. She is by far the best recruiter I’ve ever worked with and it’s not even close. There’s Michael Jordan in basketball, Ronaldo in soccer, and Priya in attorney recruiting.
