What People Are Saying

“Having managed many searches as General Counsel and COO of a growing FinTech firm, and now having launched my own firm, I hold Mary Clare and David in the highest regard among recruiters that I have worked with.  Their deep understanding of talent, as well as the needs of in-house teams handling highly sophisticated mandates, shines through at every juncture.  I have greatly enjoyed their professionalism and market savvy, am pleased to have worked with them, and look forward to building on that experience in the future.  I certainly recommend them to anyone seeking premier recruiting services.”

“I was a Partner as a Top 100 Law Firm. I wanted to move in-house but to work somewhere that was a good fit both professionally and personally. David achieved that result. From the first time I met David until my acceptance of the offer to become General Counsel, David provided perfect guidance. David was professional, understanding, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, honest. David and I worked together to navigate a lengthy and extensive interview process. David continuously updated me about the process and provide excellent advice. David is an excellent recruiter and advisor and all-around great guy. I highly recommend David and his team.”

- Michael A. Rowe, Esq.
Vice President of Administration and General Counsel Lucas Construction Group, Inc.

“Working with David on my most recent search took the pressure and stress out of the hiring process. True to their Code of Ethics, the firm was honest, respectful, and responsive. My high expectations regarding service were met, and the firm found us an excellent attorney. The way they did their job allowed me more time to focus on mine. I will hire Princeton Legal Search again.”
