This Makes Our Day

“Esther combines the best qualities of a counselor and advocate. From our first meeting to the day I started at my new firm, she listened to me and let my goals shape our path together. Her counsel throughout was patient and helpful and when I needed an advocate, she stepped up unhesitatingly and was effective. She made the stressful and laborious process much easier and I would recommend her to anyone, without reservation or qualification.”

“I was impressed that Esther took the time to really understand me, my practice, what was working for me and what was giving me pause. It was evident that she truly cared about the personal and professional fit and helped me make the right lateral move. She clearly knows her way through the labyrinth of DC law firms and provided invaluable advice and assistance throughout the quite involved search process.”

“I had joined a firm straight out of a government job and didn’t know what to expect when I was contacted by Esther two years later. I suspected that I needed a different platform and she turned out to be a fabulous find. She walked me through the process, had detailed information on each firm she presented and coached me along the way. She would be the first call I would make if I were to make a lateral move again.”
