As a previously practicing attorney, I understand the struggle of finding the best next role and joining a new law firm. I pride myself on truly listening to and connecting with each candidate, digging into what they are looking for, their qualifications, and personality. I find they really appreciate that, and it leads to a more meaningful, effective process.
