In an ever-changing legal marketplace, your career deserves individualized attention. Accordingly, our professional staff of experienced attorney-advisors provides one-on-one career advising.
Our attorney-advisors have extensive legal practice experience in a wide variety of specialties, such as large and small firms, government, public interest and the judiciary. Each member of our professional staff also has considerable training and experience in counseling, mentoring and hiring law students and practicing attorneys.
Individual career advising with one of our professionals can range from initial issues like education about the legal profession generally, to guidance during career self-assessment and job changes throughout your career. In addition, our professional advisors can help you identify your strongest skills and personal values, as well as areas for continued professional development. Our attorney-advisors also evaluate cover letters and resumes, as well as techniques in interviewing and networking. Finally, our attorney-advisors can give you important insights about the legal employment market, trends in the legal industry and how such information may impact your career goals.
As lawyers should be, we strive to respond to your needs very quickly. Usually we can schedule your appointment or return your critiqued resume within days of your request. Sometimes, however, high demand for professional advising and evaluation services and other programming commitments can make immediate appointments or resume evaluations impossible. Please help us to provide you with professional service of the highest quality by planning with this in mind.
