Laurence Simons Establishes New York Presence

October 13, 2010 – International legal recruiter Laurence Simons has launched a new office in New York which will be run by co-managing partners of North America Danice Kowalczyk and Carey Bertolet. “Particularly among New York law firms, the hiring season this year will be even more frenetic,” said Naveen Tuli, managing director of Laurence Simons. “For many firms the first half of this year was about downsizing and consolidation, causing sharp decreases in the total number employed in law. Now confidence is returning to the sector, albeit gradually, and the market for exceptional lawyers is leading a change in the hiring environment.” Laurence Simons International currently has office locations in London, Amsterdam, Chicago, Dubai, Dublin, Geneva, Hong Kong, Melbourne, Moscow, New York, Paris, Sao Paulo, Singapore and Sydney.
