We are pleased to work with law firm partners considering lateral moves.  We have placed equity and non-equity partners with substantial portable practices and partners with little or no portable business in a variety of practice areas including - litigation, real estate, corporate, employee benefits, taxation, intellectual property, and other fields. 

We are pleased to discuss potential lateral moves with partners in strict confidence. We value long-term relationships with partner candidates and are pleased to discuss market trends, opportunities, and other concerns at any time.   In an era when partners make lateral moves far more often than was the case even 10 years ago, it is more important than ever to make the right move, at the right time, for the right reason.  We take great pride in the longevity and thoughtfulness of our partner placements and understand that each partner has a unique range of concerns and issues to address. 

We are familiar with the details of lateral moves  - compensation systems, draws, capital requirements, withdrawal, non-cash compensation issues, marketing budgets, retirements plans, etc.   We will work with you from the beginning of the process through its conclusion - including the development and presentation of marketing plans, business development objectives, lateral hiring questionnaires,  and all other steps along the way.  

In addition to extensive experience placing partners  - Frank Kimball was an equity partner in a leading national firm and can work with you on all aspects of planning, developing, initiating, and making a lateral move.   We understand that  an interest in making a lateral move can arise for many reasons and that lateral hiring is not a one-size-fits-all exercise. 
We do not solicit, recruit, or place partners who practice with our law firm clients.
