I worked with George for a recent move and had a seamless experience navigating the NYC lateral market. Despite being based in London, George worked around EST hours and always made himself available as per my convenience. I was impressed by his knowledge of the NYC legal markets and appreciated the effort he put in trying to understand my background and goals so he could find me the best fit. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone considering a lateral move.
