    Why talk to Rebecca Glatzer?

    Korey Silas joined Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP's Atlanta office in the Litigation group.

    I had the pleasure of working with Rebecca during my transition to the Atlanta legal market, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Rebecca was an exceptional advocate throughout the recruiting process. She was consistently attentive, diligent, and communicative, ensuring I was informed and prepared at every stage. Her deep knowledge of the Atlanta legal market was evident from day one—not only did she understand the landscape, but she often identified opportunities before they were publicly listed, giving me access to positions I otherwise would have missed. What could have been a stressful and overwhelming process became far more manageable because of Rebecca's guidance. She took the time to understand my career goals, provided thoughtful advice, and remained responsive and proactive throughout my search. If you are looking for a legal recruiter who is knowledgeable, well-connected, and genuinely invested in helping attorneys find the right opportunity, I would wholeheartedly recommend Rebecca.

    Why talk to Susan Belardi?

    Caitlin Trevillyan, Esq. joined Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP's District of Columbia office in the Government group.

    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.
