Veritas Legal Consulting, LLC

I would highly recommend Steven to anyone contemplating a lateral move. Steven went above and beyond throughout the entirety of my lateraling process. He made it clear from the beginning he wanted to support my long-term goals and followed through on that every step of the way. He is consistently responsive, honest and insightful. I particularly appreciated his thoughtful advice as I navigated moving cities, getting application materials together, interviewing and ultimately accepting an offer. He made what could have been a very stressful time exponentially better. He is incredibly knowledgable and has continued to provide support as I have transitioned to my new role. It is evident Steven takes the time to get to know the candidates he works with personally and has your best interests in mind always. I am incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Steven. If you are thinking about making a lateral move, Steven is an incredible resource and advocate for everyone he works with.

The Lateral Edge

Rhea was an invaluable resource in helping me move as a midlevel associate. She proactively identified target firms in my practice area, quickly reached out to them about their needs and interest in opportunistic hires, and got me interviews for several posted and unposted positions. These firms were all great fits for me and I am thrilled about the new role I have just started. This move certainly would not have been as easy and successful without Rhea’s assistance.
