Below, we’ve outlined two tailored, converging roadmaps detailing our approach to conducting searches for both clients and lawyers.
Clients
Lawyers
We start with an in-depth consultation to understand the specific expertise you’re seeking in a lawyer. We’ll also discuss your team’s composition and culture, helping align the search with your organisational needs.
1. Kick Off
We begin with a personal consultation, ideally face-to-face, to get to know you —your experience, career goals, preferred work style, and team dynamics. We’ll explore the firm culture, diversity, and progression opportunities you’re looking for, all while keeping your timeline in mind. Our goal is to understand you as a person and a lawyer, so we can offer advice that truly aligns with your aspirations.
Using our extensive network and industry expertise, we conduct thorough market analysis, providing insights on compensation benchmarks and trends while identifying top-tier candidates that match your criteria.
2. Market Research
Depending on your needs, we offer either: (i) immediate market analysis with detailed information on relevant opportunities or (ii) a long-term consultative approach, keeping you updated on the market. For team and partner moves, we also provide comprehensive guidance on Business Plans and Lateral Partner Questionnaires, ensuring you’re well-prepared for your transition.
Based on your briefing and search requirements, we’ll then present you with a list of suitable candidates we’ve confidentially approached. We then coordinate interviews and facilitate detailed feedback exchanges throughout the process.
3. Approach & Interview
When you’re ready to explore the market, we confidentially reach out to our established network and offer tailored interview advice, ensuring you present yourself in the best light throughout the process.
Once you’re ready to extend an offer, we’ll help create a compelling package that aligns with both your expectations and the candidate’s needs.
4. Offer
When a formal offer is received, we’ll get answers to those awkward questions on your behalf, and sense check any concerns.

After the offer is accepted, we assist with finalising the process, managing conflict checks, resignation coordination, and start date arrangements, ensuring a seamless transition.
6. Follow-up
Our relationship continues after the start date. We periodically check in to ensure a successful integration and ongoing satisfaction.
