What People Are Saying

I had the good fortune to work with David Garber and Princeton Legal through my placement in my new opportunity.  David was extremely thorough in sharing pertinent details and background as to the position and in providing all the information that I needed throughout the interview process.  In the rare instance where he didn’t know the answers to my questions, he quickly found the answers and reported back.  David made the process run smoothly and made sure that I was continually updated as to the progression and timing of the search.  To put it simply, David Garber is a pleasure to work with and most deserving of his excellent reputation.

“I turned to David and Michael to help expedite filling a legal role with a niche specialty that was difficult for our internal recruiters to fill and that had been open for numerous months.  Within 60 days of finalizing the engagement, David and Michael presented to us the candidate whom we ultimately hired. That speed to hire would not have been possible without David’s and Michael’s intentional efforts to learn and understand our company, our department and the value proposition for the candidate to join us.  It also would not have been possible without David’s and Michael’s understanding of the pharmaceutical industry and the requirements for this niche role, and also their expansive network of lawyers who may or may not be in active search mode.  Consider me a happy customer and I’ll be back in the future to engage with Princeton Legal Search Group.”

“Without a doubt, my experience with Princeton Legal has been nothing short of outstanding!  From start to finish, the team was professional, insightful, and impactful.  I can confidently say that my transition from Big Law to a genuinely unique and well-fitting opportunity was only made possible by the diligent work of David Garber and Mike Capetola.  Throughout the process, they provided candid assessments of my candidacy and routinely discussed interview preparation and application strategy.  I recommend Princeton Legal to anyone seeking quality career counsel and especially to those who are seeking opportunities that are specifically tailored to their interests and potential.”
