A large number of West Coast-based Willkie Farr partners are departing because the firm bowed to the President by promising $100 million in pro bono payments in order to prevent unconstitutional Executive Orders that target the firm and the severe harm that can result from them.
Joe stood out to me right away since he understood the next step I wanted to take in my career. When I was ready to make a change, most recruiters sent me positions that did not meet my expectations; the positions typically had my same job title and duties, but I was looking to expand beyond the role I had at the time. Joe helped me make the leap that I wanted to a new role in recruiting, and he made me feel confident in my ability to do so. He encouraged me throughout the entire interview process and provided me with constructive feedback. I am very thankful for getting the opportunity to work with Joe and for his help in finding the perfect fit for me.
Legal Recruiting Coordinator
Jillian is the perfect recruiter to represent you in an ever-growing competitive market. I first met Jillian when she reached out to me about switching law firms. While most recruiters approach you with an overly aggressive attitude, she came across as welcoming and understanding. She was incredibly responsive and always knew the right next steps to take. She also made sure I was prepared for every interview and had helpful tips to make sure each stage of the recruitment process was a breeze. I would highly recommend Jillian to anyone who is looking to make a switch in their career. Jillian is the perfect recruiter to represent you in an ever-growing competitive market.

Joe is a pleasure to work with. Within two days of speaking with Joe I was scheduled to interview at a firm in downtown Chicago. Within two weeks, I was hired. Joe was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the process. If I ever had any questions, he would answer them immediately. Joe is not like other recruiters who submit your application and then disappear. I truly recommend him if you are looking to make a career move.

I cannot say enough great things about working with Ana. From start to finish, she truly went above and beyond in every possible way. As someone in the legal field, finding the right position — not just any position — was incredibly important to me. Ana understood that immediately. She took the time to learn what I was looking for professionally and personally, and she was genuinely invested in helping me find the best fit. Throughout the entire process, she was in constant communication, keeping me informed, prepared, and confident every step of the way. Her guidance, insight into the legal market, and attention to detail made what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and manageable. I always felt supported and advocated for. If you are looking to work with a recruiter who is knowledgeable, responsive, professional, and truly cares about her candidates, I wholeheartedly recommend Ana.

Joe is the best there is. His knowledge of the field is matched only by his responsiveness and desire to find the exact right fit for his clients. When I first contacted him, I was at sea, confused about how to take the next step in my career. Joe not only facilitated my career shift, but also walked me through the entire process, providing sound advice with the comfort and ease of a seasoned professional. I’m not making another move without consulting Joe first.

I cannot say enough kind words about Joe, he is one of the best recruiters I have worked with. He’s not only friendly and easy to work with, but he also has a lot of integrity and is generous with his time. When I was applying for positions, he was willing to take the time out of his day to discuss another position I had applied for that did not permit recruiter submissions. Joe wasn’t trying to push me to take just *any* job, he wanted me to find the *right* job. I really appreciated his low-pressure approach to recruiting and will definitely recommend him to others who are looking to advance their careers.

Joe worked hard to represent my interests and make sure that my transition to a new firm would be as seamless as possible, even when there were a few transition challenges due to timing. Joe was always available to me and so great to work with. Thanks, Joe!
