The American Lawyer recently reported that after several down years, lateral hiring of partners is back to pre-recession levels. But in many ways, the landscape has changed significantly. In this One-Hour Briefing, Executive Search Consultants Stephen Nelson and Andi Cullins review the state of the market and the factors that partner-level candidates need to consider in determining both whether to make a move and how to evaluate opportunities that may arise.

Among the topics that will be discussed:

• Evaluating your current position
• Developing a “shopping list” for your search
• An overview of the law firm lateral hiring process
• The portable business question
• Considerations for government and in-house lawyers
• How to develop a business plan
• Doing your due diligence
• Ethical issues
• Using recruiters – pro and con
• Dos and don’ts in working with recruiters
