Thank you Beatrice we couldn’t have done it without you

“Beatrice is a force.  There is no other way to describe her and her efforts on my behalf.

From my first contact with Beatrice, it was apparent to me that she is not your ordinary legal placement consultant. In fact, to put her in that category does her a disservice.

Beatrice literally altered my career path, and in a very good way.  After more than thirty-five years of practice, I was not sure there were any exciting opportunities left for me.    Boy was I wrong.  

Once she learned about my practice, my experience, and my desire to build an even more dynamic practice in the years ahead, Beatrice helped me demonstrate to potential firms both the value of my experience and my client base.  She found several opportunities for me, but the one with the best cultural fit, geographic reach, and full service practice was Lathrop GPM LLP.  A firm I never would have learned about but for Beatrice and API.

Thank you, Beatrice and API.  You have my deepest appreciation and unqualified recommendation”

“In my recent lateral move, Beatrice was effective acting as both advocate and counselor. Using her understanding of the legal market, she ensured that I showcased my strengths and knew what to expect.  Throughout the process, Beatrice also apprised me of developments and invited questions and feedback.

Beatrice discerns what motivates individuals and teams, which allowed her to match my career vision with the goals of my current group.  She understood my focus on culture and practice area growth as well as the importance of alignment between my values, skillset, and experience and the mindset of my new team.

Beatrice has enabled me to step into a career opportunity unlike any other, and I am excited to begin this new chapter.  I credit the success of my recent move to her efforts and abilities.  For a legal professional interested in a career shift, Beatrice is the right choice”. 

“Beatrice has been pivotal in helping me find a great platform to grow my business despite the fact that it was a somewhat atypical lateral partner move. In addition to being proactive and responsive, Beatrice provided thoughtful and strategic suggestions throughout the process. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a lateral move”.

“I had the pleasure of working with Beatrice during my recent job search, and I cannot emphasize enough the exceptional level of service and commitment she provided. Beatrice truly went above and beyond to ensure my experience was not only successful but also tailored to my unique needs.

From our initial conversation, it was evident that Beatrice possesses a deep understanding of the legal industry and an extensive network of connections. She took the time to understand my career goals, strengths, and preferences. This personalized approach definitely set Beatrice apart from other recruiters I have worked with in the past.

What impressed me most was Beatrice’s proactive communication and transparency throughout the entire process. She consistently kept me informed about potential opportunities, provided valuable insights into the legal market, and offered constructive feedback to enhance my candidacy. At no point did I feel like I was just a transaction. This level of engagement made me feel supported and confident in my job search.

Beatrice also worked hard to match my skills with the right opportunities. She not only identified positions that aligned with my career objectives but also took the time to ensure that the organizational culture and work environment were a good fit. This attention to detail was instrumental in helping me secure a role that exceeded my expectations. With Beatrice’s support, I will be successfully transitioning into a new role that aligns perfectly with my career aspirations. Her commitment to my success and genuine passion for connecting candidates with the right opportunities have left a lasting impression.

Beatrice is not just a recruiter but rather a trusted advisor who is genuinely invested in the success of those she represents. I wholeheartedly recommend Beatrice to any legal professional seeking a recruiter who goes above and beyond to ensure a positive and successful job search experience.”

Group Move: “The word “professional” epitomizes Beatrice O’Brien, who is a tireless and dedicated advocate for her clients. She is extremely adept at identifying firms whose search criteria match the search criteria of her clients. One of Beatrice’s many skills is her ability to foster a working relationship with the firms of interest and then promote a dialogue between those firms and her clients. When it gets down to working out a deal, her negotiation skills are unrivaled. We unequivocally endorse Beatrice O’Brien and her company Attorney Placements International!”

“Beatrice is simply the best. She is the most driven, sophisticated, and ambitious recruiter that I have ever met. Her network is extraordinary and, as a result, she can get you access to the right people at the right firms.

Most importantly, she takes a broad view of how a potential lateral move fits into your career development and offers thoughtful strategic advice. And when it comes time to negotiate, she is a force of nature, exactly the person you want in your corner. Simply put, she has done more to advance my career than any other single person.”
