What Our Clients Are Saying |
Legal Authority has helped thousands of attorneys and law students find new opportunities and new careers throughout the country. You would think that we have heard every possible story by now, every set of circumstances that led to success; but no, we haven't. Every client is different, and each one spins a different tale of his or her job search—pitfalls, promising opportunities, and philosophies.
Legal Authority would like to share some of these stories with you. While these can't indicate the level of success that you will necessarily have in your job search, they are certainly an indication of how people like yourself have felt about our service and product. Hopefully your letter can join these ranks soon!
Dealing with customer service is easy |
Legal Authority is THE place to begin any legal career search. I was moving from out of state and unsure of my prospects. After Legal Authority polished up my resume and I sent it out with their help, I was turning down interviews! I received four offers out of eight interviews from well-respected large firms and landed my dream job! My employment advocate provided invaluable advice that aided me throughout the process. Your career is worth the investment. I know mine was. Thank you Legal Authority! Thanks again Caroline!

Sent 300 letters, got 3 interviews within one week, and 8 days after sending the letters I had a great offer. I love the firm and the environment. I am enjoying my new job immensely and the location is so perfect. Thank you again for all your help. I could not have done this without you or your company.

I wanted to thank Legal Authority for a successful job search. I sent out more than 400 resumes, and the response was very positive. I had about 14 separate interviews (most with callbacks for second interviews) ranging from small law firms to the largest law firms in the central New York area. I also received several dozen telephone calls from attorneys who wanted to discuss job opportunities or just wanted to help with advice and encouragement. All together, I received six job offers, of which three were more than satisfactory. I chose a law firm in Syracuse, which was ideal for me in several important respects. I believe that the resume that Legal Authority helped me to prepare was an essential part of the process, along with the data base that we used to set up the mass mailing. I received many complimentary comments from lawyers and others on the high quality of the resume, but they never realized that they were just one of 400. I was not looking forward to this job search, which seemed daunting and overwhelming, but Legal Authority made it easy and organized. I would highly recommend Legal Authority to anyone who is planning an attorney job search. Thank you and the staff for everything.

Legal Authority is effective |
After struggling with writing my own resume and cover letter, I had Legal Authority take over. I was extremely pleased with how Legal Authority redesigned the entire look and style of my resume and cover letter, giving them a more professional image. Thanks, Legal Authority, for doing such an amazing job!

I was practicing in a small firm where I saw no growth opportunity for myself (I am a litigator who used to be in insurance). I got an offer from a place where I feel I can get on partner track. Thanks. I needed this.

My letters resulted in one interview that would have developed into more, I'm sure, had I not gotten an offer from another firm first! Thank you for your help in my job search. Even as a graduate of a top-tier law school, I found your service and advice to be on point and extremely beneficial. Why would anyone want to work with a recruiter?

Legal Authority Exceeded My Expectations |
Got an interview and offer last night, and other firms are still interested. I wish I'd known about Legal Authority sooner because the work you do is nothing short of wonderful.

I wanted to do human rights law and couldn't get noticed. Now, I have two interviews with firms that rejected me when I was doing this myself. You guys did an amazing job. Thank you so much.

As an eighth-year attorney from a low-ranked law school, I hoped to move from Florida to Colorado, but ''experts' said I'd be lucky if I could even find contract work. Legal Authority got me 11 interviews in Denver and several offers. It's definitely more than I expected, and I am very impressed with your company. Thank you.

Legal Authority is Much Better than other Methods of Looking for a Legal Job |
I went to school in another state and was trying to break into the Los Angeles market. I had used all of my connections and talked to everyone I knew. There were lots of promises of help, but NOTHING panned out. I turned to Legal Authority as my last hope. I did a search in Los Angeles and sent out 600 letters and got eight interviews. I just accepted a position making $85,000 per year, with the promise of a raise in six months. I KNOW I WOULD HAVE NOT FOUND THIS JOB WITHOUT LEGAL AUTHORITY!!!!!

My law degree was earned in China. I thought getting a summer job with my background was impossible, because my Career Services Office couldn't help me, but Legal Authority's marketing got me the job. I'm so grateful.

As a third-year law student, I tried marketing myself and got nowhere. I needed serious help to find a patent job, and my Career Services Office was useless. I used your company to send out 650 letters to patent firms, and I've gotten interviews and serious offers on the table already.

Legal Authority Worked for Me |
I had passed the Colorado Bar but couldn't find a job. Enter Legal Authority and I got four interviews and two offers in the healthcare field just as I'd hoped.

Hello, I am a recent grad of a top 50 school. I also speak fluent Japanese and spent two years living there. In my prior career I was an intelligence analyst. I have 1 interview so far from the mailing. I'll keep you posted.

Thank you for the help. I just got the job with a mid-sized firm I'd always dreamed about. They're actually paying all my moving expenses from D.C. and my BarBri fees for the California Bar. I couldn't have done it without your help. Thanks.

Legal Authority is a Good Value for Money |
Thanks to Legal Authority, I went from a $35K paralegal at a top firm to an actual attorney making $80K at a mid-sized firm. I'm getting to do the IP work that I wanted, and I got several interviews out of the 300 or so letters I sent out. This was one investment I'm proud of. Thanks.

Prior to getting my materials from Legal Authority, I had already sent out several resumes with no responses after a month. These were on jobs posted on web sites and through the bar journal. One particular reply that I eventually received stated that there were more than a hundred applicants. Within 10 days of sending out about 300 resumes from Legal Authority, I had 4 calls for interviews and 2 of those wound up offering me jobs...and it cost me less than if I would have hired a headhunter.

I would like to thank you for all of your help during this process. I truly could not have done it without you or Legal Authority. Given the nature of the profession, I believe that an attorney looking for a job must consider Legal Authority a necessary, indispensable service. The cost is money well spent. As a person who tried to find a job on his own once, my advice to others is: don't do it. Your likelihood of finding the best position is drastically reduced. After using Legal Authority, I received 10 requests for interviews! For this reason, I was able to make an informed choice that best suited me, rather than settle for a firm because it was the only one that offered me a job. I can assure you, this is a much better position to be in. I intend to recommend Legal Authority to all of my friends in the profession who are looking for other positions.
Thanks again.
