Market-defining placements for leading law firms worldwide

Our Approach

  • We specialize in high-impact strategic moves, including partner/group placements, office openings and key practice expansions across geographies.

  • Our approach is simple: we hold ourselves to the same standard of excellence that our clients bring to the practice of law.

  • Whether advising a partner on a transformative lateral move or helping a firm execute a market-defining expansion, we bring best-in-class research and market insights, creative problem-solving, global connections and a commitment to long-term success.

  • Max truly understands the complexities of our practice and the demands of the USA legal market. Renaissance's market expertise and ability to identify top-of-market candidates have been invaluable; Max consistently delivers individuals with the technical ability and team fit we need, even in the most competitive lateral markets.

  • "As a foreign-trained lawyer, Max was an invaluable source of guidance during my move to New York. He is an expert who makes the stress of an international move melt away, providing candid advice about the state of the market and the strength of my application. Max was available day or night to talk through concerns and offered invaluable coaching through every step of the protracted interview process. I truly believe I would not have received multiple over-market offers were it not for Max’s ability to advocate for his candidates and navigate a completely new legal market with such passion."

    —Counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP

  • "Max takes the time to truly understand your career goals and find a firm that is right for you. While other recruiters tried to limit my options based on my previous practice area, Max saw my multidisciplinary strengths and positioned me for success, helping me articulate a vision that put me on the partner track. He is well-respected in the industry with exclusive access to roles not open to other agencies. Throughout the process, Max was consultative, thoughtful, and a fantastic negotiator. I highly recommend Max as the first port of call for any lawyer looking for a meaningful step up."
