WHY IT WORKS
Our Approach
At Premier Pursuit, we believe recruiting should feel personal — not transactional. We take a consultative approach, grounded in integrity, confidentiality, and a genuine commitment to helping both attorneys and firms achieve long-term success.
MEET THE FOUNDER
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
