Inside Our Legal Recruiting Practice

From inception, BCS Legal began with the simple belief that when people feel valued, good things happen for organizations and individuals. We aim to be a trusted partner by bringing integrity, clarity, and care to a process that can feel overwhelming in today’s legal job market. As former practicing attorneys, we understand how important it is for attorneys to advance professionally while staying aligned with your personal goals. We also understand the unique challenges of growing a strong legal team in this complex and often competitive job market.

Our Areas of Expertise

Associate Recruiting

The pace and complexity of the lateral market can be challenging for both associates exploring a move and law firms seeking the right talent. Associates who partner with BCS Legal gain clarity and control over their search, while firms benefit from candidates who are informed and intentional.

Partner Recruiting

Partners turn to BCS Legal for strategic and confidential guidance - leveraging market intel and a relationship‑driven approach to find platforms that offer stronger support, growth, and long‑term stability.

In-House Counsel Recruiting

Legal leaders expanding their in‑house teams, and attorneys exploring a move in‑house partner with us for one key reason: our attention to detail at every stage of the hiring process. This level of care ensures we match attorneys with opportunities that support long‑term success and growth.

Temp & Contract Attorneys + Legal Support

We partner with in‑house legal teams and law firms looking for flexible, cost‑effective ways to expand their legal capacity. Our temporary talent can assist with contracts, corporate transactions, litigation matters, data privacy, employment issues, and regulatory/compliance work.

What Candidates & Companies Say

Don't take our word for it!

I worked with Neil to make a lateral move to another state, where I did not have contacts and was not barred. I was seeking to be closer to my significant other, so the decision carried both professional and personal importance. From the outset, he approached the process with care and an interest in my goals. I’m happy to say, 6 years later, I was promoted to partner at the firm Neil introduced me to. Looking back, it’s clear his involvement made a difference in both my professional trajectory and my personal life. I’ve since referred others in my network to Neil, whether for lateral moves or for broader conversations about the legal job market.

I had the pleasure of working with Neil on two separate moves, and each experience was positive. He took the time to understand my goals, and the nuances of the practice settings in which I would thrive. His market insight is astute and his guidance was practical and strategic. Communication was always timely and candid, and I consistently felt well-prepared and supported. The two roles I ultimately accepted were productive opportunities in firms with excellent culture, and each has advanced my career in meaningful ways. I recommend him to any attorney seeking a thoughtful recruiter.

I found the ideal candidate thanks to Jake Bergeron at BCS Search. After searching for nearly two months, I reached out to Jake, and within a few days he presented several strong candidates—one of whom I was delighted to hire for our open position. She has been a wonderful addition to our firm, and I sincerely appreciate Jake’s responsiveness and support throughout the process.

Neil supported me through two major firm transitions that required relocation, and both were seamless from start to finish. He truly understood what I was looking for at each stage of my career and was highly effective in matching me with firms that were the right fit. He was responsive, thoughtful, and consistently provided clear guidance throughout the process, which made each transition far less stressful.

Working with Neil during my transition to Dentons was a genuinely positive experience. He approached the process with care, discretion, and a deep understanding of the legal market, as well as the intersection of my personal needs and skill set. Neil was judicious, forthright, and non-abrasive in how he presented opportunities; communicative throughout; and steady in his guidance, which allowed me to move forward with confidence. I appreciated his strategic approach and would recommend Neil and BCS Search to attorneys who value a trusted partner in their career decisions.

Nichole was irreplaceable at an inflection point in my career when I was unsure of my next steps. She not only served as my career advisor but also, more importantly, actually implemented and effectuated my plan. She helped me understand what I wanted and, with her market knowledge and relationships with all of the right people, connected me with multiple firms, each of which were great options for achieving my goals. Thanks to her guidance and direct efforts, I joined a firm that met every criteria and is the perfect fit.
