    Why talk to Darin Morgan?

    Brian Sullivan joined Duane Morris LLP's Philadelphia office in the Litigation group.

    I am so glad I responded to Darin's email. He is the consummate professional - zero pressure or salesmanship (like some other recruiters), pulls no punches, and is a good and decent guy. He is the real deal and has a great depth of experience and insight based on years of experience both as a BigLaw attorney and an industry recruiter. Darin is straightforward, thoughtful, and responsive. I've got a great new position to thank him for, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
