Professional Services
for Clients and Candidates

Asia Legal Resources offers a range of services that drive legal excellence in intellectual talent, strategy and practice. Our core business is quite simply recruiting talent, typically on a contingency basis, for law firms and multinationals. We have successfully placed partners, associates, and legal consultants, along with a range of ancillary legal support staff for international and domestic firms. For our multinational clients, we have successfully filled roles for regional General Counsel, country lead lawyers, staff attorneys, compliance officers, etc. across a range of industries, including manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, finance, etc.

We also provide strategic consulting services to law firm management teams on legal market analysis and segmentation, entry and development strategies, analysis and development of specific practice areas, team building, market movements, etc. Our in-depth knowledge of the legal market and relevant regulatory regime position us uniquely to highlight practice trends, growth areas and potential strategic advantages.

Our extensive candidate portfolio is based almost entirely on our ever growing personal and professional network. Our process is indeed very individual and selective. We take a long term approach when working with candidates. In addition to finding candidates “better” jobs, the below are examples of some of the career advice we provide on a daily basis:

  • Should you stay in private practice or consider a move in-house?
  • What level of salary can you expect in the current market?
  • What are your short and long term career options?
  • Which practice areas should you move into to become more marketable / competitive?

In any given search, we typically work closely with the hiring team, consulting on a variety of matters including:

  • Proposed job description, title considerations, etc.;
  • Salary range for the desired candidate;
  • Estimated time frame to close on the right candidate;
  • Candidate background/qualifications needed for job in mind;
  • Size of candidate pool for certain practice areas;
  • Go to market strategies with particular consideration of confidentiality concerns;
  • Potential trouble shooting in the event, for example, the job requires extremely unique skills, is in a relatively remote or rare location, or the proposed salary range is outside standard market parameters.
  • As an LLM candidate who eventually wants to return to your home country, should you first try to secure a job in the US or immediately return to your home country to seek a position?
  • As an expatriate looking to work outside the US, what are my prospects and what can I expect in terms of a compensation package?
  • How can I re-enter the legal field after time off for personal or other reasons?

Rest assured that all discussions are strictly confidential. As former practicing lawyers, we understand your concerns. We do not post advertisements on our website, even though at any given time we have multiple roles open at various levels and in different geographic locations. Contact us directly if you are considering a move or simply wish to gain some up to date market information.
