Max was super responsive and targeted in his approach. He brought opportunities to me and listened to feedback to seek out additional opportunities that may not have been available at first glance. He was a pleasure to work with!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Ren; he is an amazing recruiter. His insight into the lateral market and his connections at top-tier firms made the lateral process smooth. The lateral process can be a stressful process, however, Ren provided guidance throughout all phases of the process, which made the process far less stressful. I strongly recommend Ren to anyone considering a move!

Rebecca is a FANTASTIC recruiter, and I can't recommend her enough. Her knowledge of the market is outstanding, and she really "takes care of" you - she is incredibly responsive and supportive, and she instills confidence every step of the way. Even in a rough lateral market, Rebecca made it happen. She followed up with firms weekly and gave me daily/weekly updates, and she made sure to communicate my unique experience and resume to firms. She was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable during the interview process, giving me great examples of interview questions that were personalized to my experience and resume. She also gave me detailed profiles of each of my interviewers, which was awesome. Even after an offer came in, Rebecca was still "fighting" for me every step of the way, making sure my benefits and bonus would be commensurate with my expectations, and following up with the firm on conflicts, etcetera. Rebecca is so personable and kind, and I really felt like she made the whole experience so personalized to me and my resume/situation, which speaks volumes. Seriously can't recommend her enough! Five star experience working with Rebecca!

Sami Ghubril joined Kirkland’s Houston office in the Corporate group.
I wholeheartedly recommend Ed for anyone seeking their next lateral move. Ed went above and beyond, scrutinizing my resume and deal sheet unlike any other recruiter that I have worked with, and in doing so provided helpful granular feedback. Other recruiters will just sign off on what you send them - not Ed! I also appreciated Ed’s advice. I was searching for a new position in a tough job market, and while he didn’t always tell me what I wanted to hear, he gave me his honest assessment of the market and always sought to set realistic expectations so I don’t become disappointed. He was also available via text message and call and advocated for me with the same rigor that attorneys are expected to advocate for their clients. I am proud to consider Ed a personal friend and I fully believe that he would advocate just this hard and work as diligently for any client.

Evan is incredible. He made it feel like I was his sole client during my search process. He works at lightning speed and is very much on top of everything, from the initial resume review all the way through to the first day at the new firm. He is deeply attuned to current market conditions from both the attorneys' and the firms' perspectives, which makes his guidance thoughtful, balanced, and on the mark. I cannot recommend Evan enough - he is a consummate professional and a great person.
