MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO
Hey, I'm Martina!
I started Premier Pursuit because I’m passionate about helping attorneys build careers they’re genuinely excited about. I graduated from law school and began my career in BigLaw, practicing labor and employment law. After a few years, I made the leap into legal recruiting at an international agency and quickly realized how much I loved guiding attorneys through big career moves. That experience inspired me to create Premier Pursuit—a boutique legal recruiting firm focused on thoughtful, strategic, and personalized placements.
Successfully placed attorneys at AmLaw 200, boutique, and in-house legal departments nationwide
Former BigLaw associate with firsthand insight into law firm culture, expectations, and career paths
Deep network of legal professionals and decision-makers, with access to both posted and unlisted roles

Why Partnering with a Legal Recruiter Can Change the Course of Your Career
Why Partnering with a Legal Recruiter Can Change the Course of Your Career
If you're an attorney thinking about making a lateral move or exploring in-house opportunities, the job search process can feel overwhelming. Between demanding billable hours and limited visibility into what’s really out there, it’s easy to postpone your next move — even if you know you're ready for something new.
That’s where a legal recruiter becomes your greatest asset.
At Premier Pursuit, we specialize in connecting attorneys with career-defining opportunities. Whether you’re looking for more balance, better compensation, or a clearer growth path, here’s why working with a legal recruiter can elevate your search:
1. Access to Unlisted Opportunities
Not all legal jobs are publicly posted. Many firms and companies rely exclusively on trusted recruiters to discreetly fill open roles — especially those at the partner, senior associate, or in-house level. Working with Premier Pursuit gives you access to these hidden opportunities before anyone else.
2. Tailored Career Guidance
Your career is more than a résumé. We take the time to understand your goals, your practice area, your personality, and what’s missing in your current role. Then, we use our market insight to help you target roles that align with your definition of success — not just what’s available.
3. A True Advocate in Your Corner
We don’t just submit your résumé and hope for the best. We pitch you directly to decision-makers, prepare you for interviews, and help position your experience in the strongest light possible. Throughout the process, we’re your sounding board, your strategist, and your biggest supporter.
4. Market Expertise You Can Trust
From compensation benchmarks to firm culture insights, we offer a level of intel you simply can’t find online. We know which firms are growing, which teams are top performers, and which opportunities offer real advancement — not just a new title.
5. Confidentiality & Discretion
We understand the sensitivity of making a move — especially in the legal world. You can trust us to keep your search confidential and handle every outreach with professionalism and care.
Your Next Step Could Be a Conversation Away
The legal market is constantly evolving — and the best time to explore your options is before you feel burned out or boxed in. Whether you’re actively looking or just curious about what’s out there, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
