Maritime & Admiralty recruitment in New York — common questions

How do you find maritime and admiralty lawyers in New York who are not publicly looking?

Most strong candidates in this practice are not on job boards. Our mapping covers 50+ practitioners in the New York market, built through direct outreach, referral networks, and continuous tracking of lateral activity. When you engage us, you gain access to that intelligence immediately.

What makes maritime and admiralty recruitment in New York different from other practice areas?

The New York maritime bar is small, specialised, and highly interconnected — practitioners often know each other through arbitration panels, P&I club work, and commodity trade associations. Missteps in approach or confidentiality travel fast. We operate with the discretion that market demands, and our mapping reflects the real hierarchy of reputation within it.

Can you recruit maritime and admiralty talent for companies that operate in New York but are not law firms?

Yes. Shipping companies, commodity traders, insurers, and financial institutions that operate in New York regularly need qualified maritime lawyers for in-house roles. Our mapped talent pool includes lawyers whose backgrounds span both private practice and commercial shipping, and we have placed candidates across both firm and in-house mandates.
