Work with a recruiter who has a real relationship with the hiring team and comes recommended by your peers.

Long Ridge Partners
Josh Mackinnon joined
Orrick’s New York City office in the Corporate group.
I had the pleasure of working with Alan during my lateral recruiting process this year and would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of making a move between law firms. Alan was always collegial and prompt in his responses, and at the end of the day I was incredibly satisfied with the results.

Lateral Link
Johnathan Vaknin joined
Orrick’s Los Angeles office in the Intellectual Property group.
I worked with Summer throughout my lateral associate move and can't recommend her highly enough. She took the time to understand what I actually wanted out of my next role and surfaced niche opportunities I wouldn't have found on my own. She was also a steady guide through the trickier parts of the process: navigating conflicts checks and managing the notice and transition period at my previous firm. Her advice was practical, her communication was prompt, and I always felt like I had someone in my corner.

Major, Lindsey & Africa
Jennifer Criss joined
Orrick’s District of Columbia office in the Corporate group.
Darin is a top-notch recruiter who helped make my dream job a reality. His invaluable knowledge of the legal market and the resources from Major, Lindsey & Africa that he brings to his candidates is superb. Darin goes above and beyond to respond to any and all inquiries and to understand his candidates in order to find the right placement. He will become your biggest cheerleader as well as a trusted advisor. I highly recommend working with Darin.

Freshwater Counsel
Saurabh Gupta joined
Orrick’s District of Columbia office in the Intellectual Property group.
In my interactions with Khurram, his approach truly stood out: he listens patiently, never pushes, and consistently aims for a genuine win-win outcome. He thoroughly discusses the pros and cons of all your options so you can trust his feedback, and he’s quick to understand your perspective. He’ll push on your behalf wherever possible but isn’t afraid to tell you if something isn’t practical. You still have to walk the path and make your case, but he’s there to guide you with a firm hand. I’ve seen how his insight and dedication lead to excellent opportunities that fulfill every requirement—and then some. I highly recommend Khurram and his team as recruiters who prioritize what matters most and deliver results.
