    David Carrie LLC

    Why talk to Alice Lingo?

    Sharon Alice Joseph joined Davis Wright Tremaine LLP's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    Alice worked with me to secure a lateral move that I'm pleased with. I appreciated her guidance in clarifying my priorities and then focusing on opportunities that aligned with them. I especially appreciated her tailored approach to my goals and as well as her vast connections and practical insight. Two thumbs up!

    Why talk to Evan Fox?

    Nate Montalto joined Freshfields's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    Evan was excellent to work with. From beginning to end, Evan was exceptionally responsive and dedicated a ton of time to my search and to helping me make the right decision. I would recommend him to any attorney I know who is looking to make a move. He truly took the time to understand my motivations, and was able to find me the perfect fit.

    Why talk to Ed Hossain?

    Katya Stynes joined Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    I *highly* recommend working with Ed in your lateral search. Ed went above and beyond the standard listings (that every recruiter can arrange for you) to land on a truly unique and perfect opportunity, and then worked creatively and proactively to help me get the position. I'm now in exactly the team and practice area I hoped to end up in (a tiny niche area that I didn't think was realistic to find) and Ed was crucial in that process.

    Why talk to Max Bartram Esq.?

    Alfonso Sánchez-Eguíbar joined King & Spalding LLP's New York City office in the Litigation group.

    Max was hugely helpful in my search, proactively running opportunities by me, but also creating them from thin air. He's a talented recruiter and also a very kind, fun person to chat with. That personality goes far in terms of sourcing opportunities for his clients. Lastly, his level of care and diligence sets him far apart from the scores of recruiters that reach out to us daily.

    Alex Cavayero joined Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, LLP's New York City office in the Corporate group.

    Alan is an exceptional recruiter. Throughout the process, he was hands-on, highly diligent and refreshingly down-to-earth. With Alan advocating for me, I felt confident that I would secure the right placement on my own terms. His extensive knowledge of the market, the recruiting process and the key players was truly impressive. While I hope I never need his services again, I would not hesitate for a moment to work with him in the future.

    Why talk to Kallum (Kally) Challenger?

    Filippo Giacumbo joined Davis Polk & Wardwell's New York City office in the Derivatives group.

    I had the pleasure of working with Kally during a recent lateral transition, and I highly recommend her and her team as recruiters. They were thoughtful, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about the legal market. Throughout the process, Kally provided clear guidance, communicated proactively, and demonstrated a strong understanding of both the technical aspects of the role and the broader strategic fit. She not only understands the legal market very well, but also takes the time to understand the needs, goals, and qualities of each candidate. Her professionalism and insight made the entire process smooth and efficient, particularly as she helped me navigate multiple interviews and offers. I definitely recommend her.
