Why Big Law Firms Are Flocking to ‘Underrated’ Seattle
In an attempt to take advantage of the earning potential in the area, a number of legal firms have entered the Seattle market.
Jillian is the best! She fought hard for me to find me the perfect position. She went way above and beyond the call of duty and stuck with me throughout the recruiting process. She’s professional but also a joy to work with on a personal level. Cannot say enough good things about her. A one of a kind

Working with Michael Knutson has been an absolute game-changer in my professional journey. His depth of knowledge in recruiting is matched only by his genuine dedication to supporting candidates through every step of the process. Michael doesn’t just fill roles—he builds relationships. He took the time to understand my goals, strengths, and values, and then connected me with opportunities that truly aligned. His insights into the industry, clear communication, and strategic guidance made the entire experience seamless and empowering. If you’re looking for a recruiter who’s not only incredibly skilled but also deeply invested in your success, Michael is the one. I’m grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone navigating the next step in their career.

Jillian was a tremendous source of information and wisdom during my transition from a small management side labor and employment firm to a large national firm where navigating the do’s and don’ts was key. She really went above and beyond to make my job search easy and understood what I was looking for. Her strong contacts in the legal recruitment world gave me several options initially to pursue and consider. She really helped focus attention on the firm that would the best fit for me. I highly recommend her for others who are looking to make a change!

Joe helped me get a job with a great law firm in downtown Chicago as I was trying to relocate from D.C. He was very knowledgeable about the position for which I was applying and truly shepherded my application through the process. He wasn’t like a lot of recruiters who submit your application and then you never hear from them again. He kept me regularly updated about where I stood among other candidates and what the next steps were. Once I got an interview, he helped me prepare, gave me some pro-tips, and even offered to get me to and from the airport. I cannot thank Joe enough for his professionalism, honesty, and encouragement.

Joe was great to work with, very professional and did an awesome job helping me advance my career, I’d fully recommend anyone to work with him.
Matthew L.
Associate Attorney
I highly recommend Joe. In one brief phone call he was able to ascertain what I was looking for in a candidate. Within the day he sent me two highly qualified applicants. One turned out to be the perfect fit, and 3 days later that position is now filled!

Joe is the best recruiter I have worked with, as he has done an outstanding job for me over several years! You cannot go wrong hiring Joe.

We contracted Joe to assist us in our Docket Specialist search. He was knowledgeable of the market and quick to respond and assist us in identifying someone for our niche industry. We appreciated how quickly everything came together and his accuracy in targeting the right candidate with proper skill sets for this position.
Kristin L.
Director of Human Resources & Operations
Joe is seriously a superstar! I was in a bind to move across the country in a short amount of time but wanted to have my job lined up. We spoke right after I put my resume out there. I had several interviews within that first week and had a job secured within two. He really cares about the people he is helping. _I’m so thankful for Joe and his assistance & help throughout this process. He is truly an amazing recruiter that knows what he’s doing. _
I’m finishing my 1st month and it’s all thanks to him for introducing me!

It was such a pleasure to work with Joe. He was very knowledgeable about the legal hiring process and was great at keeping me updated on any developments. He also has a great personality, is easy to talk with, and has such a passion for what he does. I would definitely consider working with Joe again in the future if I were ever in need of a new job.

I first met Jillian while interviewing for a summer associate position when I was in law school. She quickly became my go-to sounding board for career moves and was perhaps the only recruiter I’ve met who made me feel like my career truly matters to her because, when all the other recruiters stopped replying, she stuck with me all along. Earlier this year, she sent me an email with the subject line “saw this and thought of you”. She was not contracted with the particular law firm, so she encouraged me to reach out directly and coached me throughout the entire interview process. She didn’t benefit from it at all, except to encourage and support someone that she believed in. And that made all the difference. It’s not an overstatement to say that I would probably not be at my current firm if it wasn’t for her.
Sebastian C.
Corporate Associate
It is a great pleasure to work with Joe. He is very attentive to our needs, and always finds the right person to fill the job – within the budget guidelines given. Joe is a very personable young man and leverages his recruiting network to find me top quality people in a very short timeframe, at the right price. Excellent interpersonal skills, good sense for business, and a great partner to have on my team.
