A considered approach to legal search.

1.

Understand and map

We take the time to understand the role, the practice group and the organisation’s culture. We then map the relevant legal market to identify suitable talent, including lawyers who may not be actively looking for a new opportunity.

2.

Engage and assess

We engage relevant candidates directly and confidentially, looking beyond the CV to understand their experience, career progression, motivations and suitability for the role.

3.

Introduce and deliver

We present a focused shortlist of suitable candidates and remain involved throughout the interview process, offer negotiation and appointment.
