How do you source employment and labor candidates in Boston specifically?
Our coverage of the Boston market is built from direct research into active practitioners — not résumé databases. We track lawyers across management-side litigation, union relations, and employment counseling practices in the city, giving clients a real picture of available talent rather than whoever happens to be actively looking.
What makes Boston's employment and labor lateral market distinctive?
Massachusetts imposes some of the strictest wage payment, non-compete, and anti-discrimination rules in the country, so employers operating here place a premium on lawyers with state-specific litigation and counseling experience. That specialization narrows the true candidate pool considerably, and finding it requires market-level intelligence rather than a generic national search.
Can you place employment and labor counsel for in-house roles, not just law firms?
Yes. Our mapping of the Boston market covers both law firm partners and associates and senior in-house employment lawyers at companies that operate in the region. General counsel and CHROs frequently retain us to find employment leads who understand Massachusetts compliance demands alongside litigation exposure.
