Charitable giving within Private Client and Estate Planning demands a rare intersection of technical depth and relational sensitivity. Lawyers who practise here structure complex philanthropic vehicles — donor-advised funds, charitable remainder trusts, private foundations, and planned giving arrangements — while navigating the tax, governance, and succession considerations that surround significant family wealth.
The talent market for this specialism is deliberately small and largely passive. Practitioners rarely move in response to unsolicited approaches; they move when the right platform, client mix, or succession opportunity is placed in front of them by someone who understands the work. We have mapped more than 1,000 lawyers active in this space, tracking their practice profiles, client relationships, and career trajectories over time.
Our work in charitable giving recruiting is grounded in that map — not in reactive database searches. When a client engages us, we approach the right individuals directly, with context, discretion, and a genuine understanding of why the move would serve both sides.

How does recruiting for charitable giving differ from general Private Client search?
Charitable giving is a defined subspeciality within Private Client and Estate Planning, requiring lawyers who are fluent in philanthropic structures — foundations, donor-advised funds, charitable trusts — not merely estate administration. Because the practitioner pool is narrower, a generic search against job boards or lateral-hire databases misses most of the relevant talent. Our mapping covers 1,000+ lawyers with genuine charitable giving experience, allowing us to recruit precisely rather than broadly.
Can you find candidates with both technical charitable planning skills and high-net-worth client relationships?
That combination is exactly what most clients need, and it is the axis on which we have built our market map. We distinguish between lawyers who handle charitable structures as an ancillary matter and those for whom philanthropy is a primary client service. When a search requires both technical capability and a transferable book, we work from that distinction from the outset rather than filtering for it after the fact.
We recruit across multiple markets — can Sartori & Partners support that?
Yes. Our mapping of charitable giving talent is not confined to a single jurisdiction or city. We recruit across markets for clients that operate nationally or internationally, identifying practitioners whose experience, licensure, and client profile match the specific requirement. Searches can run in parallel across markets or be sequenced according to priority — we structure the engagement to fit the need.
