Alan is not just a recruiter to me but my trusted confidant and friend. Alan has worked with me on two lateral moves and each time he had my complete trust. Alan earned my trust by demonstrating that he was listening to me--something I value highly. When I was planning my first lateral move, other recruiters tried to sell me what they had and not what I wanted from my next firm. But Alan provided me with options that fit my requirements. Alan is also dependable. Besides the big things like interview prep and offer negotiation, Alan kept his commitment in even the most routine but important things, like keeping me informed, calling at the scheduled time, and providing me with detailed data to help me with my decisions. Alan candidly discussed the options I had and was never pushy. Advice he gave me about my options was consistent with the advice I got from several seasoned lawyers. Finally, at offer time, Alan zealously advocated for the requests that I had for my future employers. So when I thought about another lateral move, Alan was my first and only call. For all these reasons, I highly recommend Alan to attorneys looking for a lateral opportunity.

I worked with Andrea when it came time to leave my prior law firm. Having spent my first five years as a lawyer with the firm I was leaving, I was a bit nervous about exploring the market and knew that I wanted to land somewhere that would meet my specific criteria (location, pay, meaningful work, opportunity to grow, good people, etc.). Andrea helped calm my nerves and educated me on the market and my best options. She also held my hand through the application/interview stages and then helped me negotiate once I received an offer, which was an incredibly beneficial service. I whole-heartedly recommend her.
