BCG Attorney Search is the industry leader for placing candidates in permanent positions in law firms. Since 2000, our recruiters have placed several thousand attorneys and enjoyed extraordinarily high success rates with our candidates. We are able to offer the most in-depth insight in the legal recruiting market thanks to our dedicated team of over 150 employees who mercilessly research, study and analyze the legal market. The depth and breadth of our research empowers us to place attorneys at rates that are unparalleled at any placement firm in the United States. Many of our recruiters make 30 to 40 placements per year, while recruiters at competitor firms are likely to make four or five. Unlike other placement firms that can only tell you about openings at major AmLaw firms, we place candidates of all backgrounds in firms of all sizes. While other legal recruiters only represent a narrow band of candidates from top law firms and top law schools, our research, firm contacts, and market insight allow us to place hundreds of candidates each year who do not fit this mold. It is rare that we do not get candidates we represent interviews and offers. No one in the world is better at legal recruiting and placement than BCG Attorney Search.

BCG Attorney Search will confidentially review your application and will not forward your materials to the firm without first discussing the opportunity with you.
