Case Study: Mid-level small firm lit associate lands a strong mid-sized firm role with BCG Attorney Search

Mid-level Small Firm Lit Associate Makes Move to Strong Mid-Sized Firm

A mid-level litigation associate at a small firm sought assistance from BCG Attorney Search to transition to a larger, well-regarded law firm in New York City. Her primary challenge was a stagnant career at a four-attorney practice where she was not doing her desired caliber of litigation work, and she had previously found that other recruiters were dismissive due to her small-firm background.

BCG Attorney Search provided personalized legal recruitment services, leveraging its market connections to secure interviews for the candidate. With the firm's coaching, she excelled in her interviews and received two offers from strong mid-sized firms. She accepted a position at a firm with approximately 60 lawyers that was an excellent cultural fit, where she is now extremely happy and valued. The successful outcome demonstrated BCG Attorney Search's ability to place candidates in a competitive market.
