What People Are Saying

“I had the good fortune of working with David Garber and Princeton Legal Search when I decided to pursue an in-house position after serving as a federal prosecutor for 10 years.  David made the search experience an extremely positive one, which resulted in my current role as General Counsel for a great company.  From the start, David took his time to get to know me as a person and as an attorney.  He also had great insight into the job I was applying for.  His assistance during the process was invaluable.  David is the consummate professional and is well respected in the legal industry.  Anyone looking for an in-house position would be lucky to work with David and his team at Princeton Legal Search.”

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.”

Princeton Legal, and Kiersten Lenherr in particular, are my heroes!  Prior to meeting with Kiersten, I had it in my mind that I may want to make a job change, but I was so intimidated by the application process, the time commitment of getting my materials together, and the prospect of interviewing for the first time in several years, that I kept putting it off.  Kiersten and her team made the entire process so smooth and simple for me.  From our very first conversation, I knew I was in good hands.  Princeton Legal takes the time to get to know the candidate, so you know you are getting an introduction and recommendation that highlights your best qualities.  From there, everything was seemless.  Kiersten went above and beyond to be available for my calls, questions, concerns (aka panic as I waited for my offer), and all the in-between.  She and David also helped me through the negotiation of the particulars of my offer, and the transition from my previous firm.  I cannot recommend this team enough.  Thank you times a million to Kiersten and Princeton Legal!
