What People Are Saying

“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.

“When you finally get the approval to move forward and add headcount, you know the organization and Department need somebody a month ago if not earlier. This is when I turn to David and can count on him to immediately focus on the search knowing he will professionally present me with a package of qualified candidates backed with his meaningful insight and ranking. Throughout the process, David is also extremely accessible and becomes a valuable partner in the selection process.”

- Gregory Mayes, Chief Operating Officer , Vice President, General Counsel
Advaxis, Inc.

“David is the ultimate professional, and has a unique ability to match a professional’s background and aspirations, with his corporate and law firm clients’ requirements. Making the connection is not David’s ultimate goal, however. He works with candidates and clients in a detailed and approachable manner, to structure resumes so that they best represent the candidate, to keep candidates informed in a real-time fashion as to job status, interview schedule, feedback, and ultimately offer negotiations – all the while being candid, accessible, and honest. If there is one word to characterize the acumen, skill set, and sixth-sense David Garber brings to the legal recruiting industry, that word is INTEGRITY.”
