Corporate Legal Recruiters

Legal recruitment expertise

Generalist legal recruiters often miss the nuances of legal hiring. Corporate legal teams need recruiters who understand legal frameworks, reporting structures, and regulatory demands. Larson Maddox focuses solely on legal recruitment, so every search is handled by consultants with industry-specific knowledge and experience.

Access to qualified legal talent

Finding experienced corporate legal professionals is increasingly competitive. Many top candidates aren’t actively job hunting and won’t be found through standard job postings. Larson Maddox gives you access to a deep network of pre-vetted legal talent across industries and seniority levels, including those not visible through traditional channels.

Tailored legal hiring

Every corporate legal team has different pressures, structures, and hiring goals. Standard recruitment approaches often fail to deliver the right fit. Larson Maddox customises each search to your specific brief, whether it’s a quick turnaround hire, a discreet leadership search, or a full legal team buildout.

Market visibility to maximise hiring success

Without clear data on compensation, talent availability, and hiring trends, legal departments risk overpaying, hiring too slowly, or missing top candidates. Larson Maddox provides real-time market insights and salary benchmarks so your hiring decisions are based on current, accurate information.
