    Farhad Tahir joined Akin’s Houston office in the Energy group.

    Ed is a great recruiter who goes beyond what I expected him to do. I had a great experience ever since my first call with him where he meticulously went through different points to understand what it is that I want out of my career, and also taking time to explain what the market is like and who to target. After that he was on top of everything, from follow-ups to scheduling and became a great resource to help bounce ideas off of when it came time to make my decision. Highly recommend anyone to reach out to Ed if they are in the lateral market.

    George was great to work with. He was responsive and knowledgeable about the market. His insights helped manage all expectations involved. Unlike many recruiters, George was genuine, and not overly aggressive or pushy. I felt at all times that George had my best interest in mind.

    Jordan Armstrong joined Orrick’s Houston office in the Energy group.

    Andrew provided a bespoke experience in helping me lateral to a new workplace. I was under no pressure to leave my current employer and, as such, I told Andrew that I was only interested in moving to a firm that could provide a laundry list of requirements - including a move to a smaller, popular, insular market. Andrew was honest with me and immediately returned the only option that had potential to provide what I was looking for. We worked together to contact that firm, putting my best foot forward, and it turned out to be an opportunity so good that I was compelled to jump. Andrew led from the front during the entire process, informing me of the necessary steps without wasting my time or attempting to divert me to other opportunities that may have been more of a sure thing for him. The experience was excellent and after hearing a variety of horror stories, I am thankful that I contacted Andrew. I have already recommended Andrew to a few folks in my network and will not hesitate to do so again.

    Rebecca provided invaluable support during the job search, going the extra mile to help secure a new position that involved relocating across the country. Her market insights, connections with various firms, and grasp of the lateral field ensured a smooth process. I highly recommend Rebecca to anyone contemplating a lateral move!

    Phillip Chang joined Gibson Dunn’s Houston office in the Finance group.

    Working with Priya was a uniquely pleasant experience. Any job search is stressful, and worrying that your chosen recruiter(s) do not have your best interests at heart is an added stressor that nobody needs. Priya used an extended intake session in order to ascertain the exact type of listings that would be most appropriate given my career goals. She has navigated the legal recruiting market extensively and brings that expertise to bear readily and transparently. Priya was hands-on and available at every step to make the process as painless as possible. I wholeheartedly recommend her for your legal job search needs.

    Evan represented me in my search for a lateral partner position in my nuanced practice area. He quickly understood the players and the market and was able to guide me in negotiations with multiple firms. He's an exceptionally skilled advocate and a real confidante. I'm grateful for his help and could not recommend him enough.
