Recruiter activity in Energy, District of Columbia

Max Bartram Esq.

Max Bartram Esq.

Coast to Coast Legal Search

Alexis D. joined Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, LLP in Washington

Working with Max was an all around positive experience. He took the time to listen and understand my career interests and goals, and presented a variety of opportunities to me that aligned with those goals. He also reassured me throughout the process that the most important thing was that I found the right fit for my lateral move, and did not rush me into making any particular decision. I would recommend Max to any friend of mine looking to make a move!
Khurram Naik

Khurram Naik

Freshwater Counsel

Erin Drolet joined Clifford Chance in District of Columbia

In preparing for my lateral move, I had a lot of questions about the logistics of the process and how to prepare for interviews. Khurram was very helpful during the experience because he was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable on the lateral market. His advice and guidance made the experience very smooth and his positivity throughout made the transition much less daunting. I would not have been able to make the move without his help!
Rhea Bagaria, Esq.

Rhea Bagaria, Esq.

The Lateral Edge

Jeffrey E. Joseph joined Troutman Pepper Locke in District of Columbia

It was an absolute pleasure working with Rhea on my next placement. She was receptive of my non-negotiables and realistic about the current market. Rhea’s professionalism and customer service is second to none. I would recommend her to attorneys looking to plan their next move without hesitation.
Darin Morgan

Darin Morgan

Major, Lindsey & Africa

Steve Boughton joined Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati in District of Columbia

Darin helped me secure the dream job with a team that meets all my needs. He has high emotional intelligence, keeping me on track without being pushy. Most importantly, Darin is invested in his clients for the longterm. Though we first spoke many months prior to the role I landed, Darin instantly alerted me to the unicorn role as soon as it came on the market. His timeliness meant that I had an offer before most recruiters had even flagged the position for me. I cannot recommend working with Darin enough.
