Testimonials
James & Luc are one of my first points of contact to discuss the market for Legal Operations talent and instruct on new opportunities. In my experience, they understand the needs of law firms in relation to Legal Operations roles better than other agents. They are trusted by both firms and candidates to handle searches and opportunities and make the right connections, thus the quality of candidates we receive is high. I also value their views and insight more broadly in relation to Legal Ops and the fact they’re proactive if there’s an opportunity that fits our needs.
Director of Legal Operations - Herbert Smith Freehills
I have worked with James quite closely over the last few years and what makes him (and Baldwin Boyes) stand out is how tapped into the market they are and the level of the relationships they have across the industry. I don’t know of any other recruiter who offers to facilitate introductions with my peers because he truly believes that would be a good thing to do. Through James I have linked up with peers in other law firms who I would never have had the opportunity to meet previously. It is that integrity that makes James stand out so not only do I trust him, I ask for his guidance across all sorts of subjects not just recruitment.
Global Head of Business Improvement - Hogan Lovells
James’ deep market knowledge and robust relationship building skills led to an efficient and effective recruitment process, streamlining key hires. He’s very easy to work with and a breath of fresh air in an overcrowded market.
