Examples of Recent Assignments
Large New York Law Firm
A partner in the private funds group at an AmLaw firm required coverage during a senior associate parental leave. The group was managing an active deal pipeline and needed to maintain pace.
David Carrie Staffing presented a senior funds attorney with directly relevant experience within twenty four hours. The attorney began a twelve week secondment within forty eight hours and handled fund formation work, investor negotiations, and governance matters.
Boutique Litigation Firm
A litigation boutique faced a surge in motion practice and upcoming deadlines in several matters. The partners needed an experienced litigator who could draft and research with minimal supervision.
We placed a litigator with AmLaw background on the same day the request was made. The attorney drafted motions, handled research, and supported hearing preparation, which allowed the partners to meet every deadline.
Corporate Legal Department
A corporate legal department anticipated a temporary increase in commercial contracts due to a product expansion. The general counsel wanted additional support without adding permanent headcount.
David Carrie Staffing provided a six month commercial contracts secondee who managed review, negotiation, and coordination with business teams, allowing internal counsel to stay focused on strategic work.
