    Why talk to Steven G. Weiler?

    Andrew Mark joined McDermott Will & Schulte's Wilmington office in the Restructuring group.

    I highly recommend Steven to any attorney considering a lateral move. Steven practiced law prior to his work as a legal recruiter. Therefore, Steven is particularly skilled at navigating attorneys through every aspect of the lateral process. Further, Steven is extremely knowledgeable about the legal markets he works in (in my case it was Delaware) and brought a valuable depth of insight to the table during my lateral process. Steven assisted in every aspect of the lateral process including with respect to preparing me for interviews and in refining my application. What I appreciated most about Steven, however, was that he took the time to get to know me and understand my unique career and life goals. Steven will never pressure someone to accept an interview or push a candidate in a given direction that they are not comfortable with. Steven’s focus is always on finding the right fit for an attorney. Steven took the time to regularly check in with me during the process and provided extra support during my transition from one firm to the other. A lateral move is a significant decision for any attorney, and I am so grateful I had Steven to guide me through the process. I cannot recommend him enough!

    Why talk to Darin Morgan?

    Chelsea Rubio joined McDermott Will & Schulte's District of Columbia office in the Trusts & Estates group.

    I was so fortunate to have picked up Darin's call by accident months ago, not realizing how useful he would be when I was ready to look for a new job. Darin actively applied to positions on my behalf and communicated updates with me regularly. He provided excellent materials and tips on interview prepping and even sent me sample answers to hard questions that would likely come up. Darin was very professional and easy to connect with when needed. I highly recommend Darin and his company.

    Why talk to Ed Hossain?

    Joseph Mansilla joined McDermott Will & Schulte's Dallas office in the Corporate group.

    When I look back to working with Ed, "adviser" is the first word that comes to mind. He is a terrific and well-rounded recruiter (as many others would attest to), but more importantly, he is an honest and trustworthy adviser. It was not a transaction; he truly builds and values an organic trusting relationship with his clients. I highly recommend working with him.

    Why talk to Priya Gulati?

    Dong (Danny) Min joined McDermott Will & Schulte's New York City office in the Real Estate group.

    Priya helped me when I moved between firms. It was my first lateral move and the thought of having to update my resume for the first time since law school and preparing for interviews was daunting, but Priya made everything unbelievably easy for me. She was willing to work with my busy schedule and worked overtime to make sure I was fully prepared for my interview. She was available for me throughout the day and night, and even on weekends. I definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking to move between firms and will reach out to her again if I decide I need another move!
