Business leaders face increasingly complex decisions that require expert counsel from world-class attorneys to ensure that the best course of action is chosen and that risk is minimized. The DHR International Global Legal & Compliance Practice comprises expert consultants, many of whom are lawyers themselves, who bring to each assignment a sophisticated understanding of the legal community, regulatory environment, and senior-level search execution. We focus on recruiting attorneys and compliance professionals for Fortune 500 companies as well as mid-sized public and private companies across a wide range of industries including financial services, life sciences, healthcare, professional services, consumer, retail, technology, media, industrial, education, and nonprofit.
We are also leaders in conducting strategic searches for law firm lateral partners and law firm management. Our clients are partners who manage their respective practice groups. We do not recruit in response to generic, firm-wide job openings typically produced and mass distributed by Human Resources departments. We take the time to know our clients, and as a retained, trusted partner, we are able to correspond with quality perspective laterals in the utmost confidentiality, giving us the ability to speak to the best in the business without fear of our conversations being broadcast around the legal community. Our reputation has grown exponentially along with our success in filling law firm positions throughout the United States, Europe and Asia.
We tailor our searches to the unique needs of our clients. We understand that candidates must be more than just great attorneys. In addition to having outstanding legal skills, candidates must be problem solvers who can address a broad range of issues, manage a team, and craft solutions that mesh with a company’s business objectives. We focus on presenting candidates who will work well within our client’s corporate culture and will become valuable members of the management team.
Diversity within the legal and compliance world is of great importance to most of our clients, and we support their efforts to recruit and retain legal and compliance talent of diverse backgrounds. We strive to make every search a “diversity search” that includes the best possible pool of candidates in terms of experience, expertise, organizational fit and diversity.
With our strong global presence and extensive understanding of diverse regional practices around the world, we are able to manage cross-border searches to find the best candidates with bicultural and bilingual skills and with both in-depth knowledge of local legal and regulatory framework as well as familiarity with US regulatory and compliance requirements, including the FCPA and Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Our knowledge of the US and international legal and compliance marketplace is unparalleled, enabling us to quickly develop a slate of candidates who will best serve your company’s needs. Our clients look to DHR International as a strategic source for both lateral hiring and market expansion. With our ability to gain insight into the culture and dynamics of individual law firms, access to top talent, and an acute understanding of the constantly evolving business needs of law firms, we can help your firm make its pivotal talent decisions with confidence and clarity.
