While candidates are always welcome to handle negotiations directly with the law firm, we believe that your Palmer Kent Associates search consultant should handle or play a significant role in the negotiations.
There are several reasons for this:

  • Emotions and misunderstandings can be minimized when an intermediary is involved, reducing the likelihood of negotiations breaking down.

  • Allowing us to handle negotiations means you can join the new firm without the stress of intense negotiations with prospective partners.

Negotiating is a core part of what we do every day, and our team has decades of combined experience in legal recruiting. We have successfully placed candidates in firms ranging from small regional practices to major international firms with numerous offices worldwide. It is this experience that enables us to complete successful and mutually beneficial placements.
