    Why talk to Bally Aujla?

    Ben C. joined Mayer Brown LLP's New York City office in the Banking group.

    I worked with Bally on my move from London to New York. Bally was excellent to work with - responsive, attentive to what I was asking for and very personable. I was able to run through what kind of role I was looking for and she helped me narrow down a great list of opportunities and carved out an unposted role for me. I felt comfortable and supported on every step of my journey and cannot recommend Bally highly enough!
