Legal Recruitment FAQ

Is it better to submit my resume directly so that the firm does not need to pay a fee?

Straightforward guidance from experienced legal recruiters.

No. Firms and organizations with in-house departments that use recruiters pay recruiter fees regularly and build recruiter fees into their budgets. Recruitment is an extremely time consuming process and clients tend to see our fees as the cost of properly doing business in a market where top talent is in demand. Law firms and organizations realize how valuable stellar associates and partners are and understand that they will earn back the recruitment fee once the lawyer begins working.
