Services to Partners & Practice Groups
While we help law firms grow, we are equally adept at assisting partners in exploring the possibility of a lateral move. Our knowledge of the law firm market is comprehensive, our approach to match-making is sophisticated, and our work is discreet, highly confidential and ethical.
Our people understand law firms by their global and regional practice strengths, cultures, management style, governance structures, compensation systems and strategic growth initiatives. We identify firms that can best leverage and meet the needs and interests of partners we introduce.
ESA has counseled hundreds of partners thru the process of navigating the lateral move. Our success based knowledge of the lateral transition process equips us to provide analysis of opportunities in the market, and provide practical advice on how to plan, navigate and execute a lateral move.
