Michael
J. Astrue, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary (1993-1999),
Biogen
Throughout
my six years as General Counsel of Biogen, I retained New England Legal
Search to fill our corporate attorney hiring needs for both our legal
department in Cambridge and our European headquarters in Paris. They
understand the corporate structure and culture of Biogen. New England
Legal Search knows the personalities and job duties of everyone in the
corporate legal department and consequently they are able to respond
quickly and accurately to our hiring needs. That ensured that they had
qualified candidates when I was ready to hire.

General
Harcourt
General has been absolutely delighted with New England Legal Search
for many, many years. They consistently provide us with outstanding
candidates, and every one that we have hired has worked out beautifully.
They are always accessible and do an excellent job of screening candidates
who will fit into our organization. I recommend them without qualification.
Seth
Hoogasian, General Counsel, Thermo Electron
New
England Legal Search helped place me at Thermo Electron in 1990 and
I became the General Counsel in 1992. They are the first people I call
whenever I need a search firm for legal staffing. Over the years, New
England Legal Search has worked closely with me to understand the dynamics
of our department and has helped me to bring together a fantastic in-house
team.
Craig
Tateronis, Chairman, Real Estate Department and Telecommunications
Group, Hutchins, Wheeler & Dittmar.
I
first worked with New England Legal Search when I was a junior associate
with a major Boston law firm, looking to change the direction of my
career. Understanding my desire to develop a practice, they found the
right small firm opportunity for me. As my business grew, I recognized
the need to move to a larger firm where I could better service my clients.
Once again, New England Legal Search helped identify the right opportunity
for me and placed me at Hutchins, Wheeler & Dittmar.
Sandra
Vrejan, Associate, Bingham Dana LLP
I've
recently relocated to Boston and used New England Legal Search to find
my new position at Bingham Dana. Coming from New York City, I had very
little familiarity with Boston law firms. New England Legal Search had
a tremendous depth of knowledge about the law firm market and the practices
at the various Boston firms. They helped me to identify which firms
would offer the best opportunities for me to advance my legal career.
Lawrence
T. Weiss, Legal Department, Tyco Healthcare Group LP
New
England Legal Search helped me in evaluating two significant career
changes - first, a move from a small boutique firm to a large downtown
firm and, several years later, a move to an in-house position. In each
case, they were helpful and responsive in answering my questions and
providing me with both honest advice and all of the information I needed
to reach a decision. At the same time, they never pressured me into
making any decision. I consider them a valuable and trusted resource.
