Optimizing Your Legal Career<br><i><font size="-1">The Role of Professional Recruiters</font></i>
Ongoing, active management of your legal career is essential. As such, every successful law firm partner should develop a long-term exclusive relationship with a top-notch, knowledgeable recruiter, someone he or she trusts to provide confidential and unbiased advice and counsel about the market and potential career opportunities.

Without a knowledgeable, objective adviser to help sort out the various options, a partner can be left feeling alone in a stressful process, navigating uncharted territory. (And while recruiting is my day job, I share this advice with you as someone who reached a crossroads in his career as a law firm equity partner.)
