How does Sartori & Partners identify immigration talent in New York?
We maintain a living map of 250+ immigration practitioners active in the New York market, covering BigLaw partners, senior associates, boutique firm leaders, and in-house immigration counsel. Our research tracks practice focus, client sectors, and lateral history — so when a search opens, we already know the field.
What kinds of immigration roles do you recruit for in New York?
We handle the full spectrum: partner and counsel placements at Am Law firms, boutique immigration practices, and in-house immigration roles at companies that operate globally with significant US workforce needs. New York's density of financial services, media, and technology clients means mandates here often require practitioners fluent in both business immigration and investor-visa strategy.
Why does immigration recruitment in New York require a specialist approach?
The New York immigration bar is tightly networked and largely relationship-driven — the best candidates are not actively searching, and conflicts of interest are easy to create without careful handling. A search firm that has already mapped this market can approach the right practitioners discreetly, protecting both the client's confidentiality and the candidate's current position.
