Steele Legal Search is committed to providing law firms, corporations, and candidates with exceptional legal placement services. Our primary focus is on placing attorneys in Washington D.C.-area law firms and corporations. We also provide search services designed to attract management-level and recruiting staff to law firms.

Since no two hiring situations are identical, Steele Legal Search takes a creative approach, working with each client and tailoring our services to meet each individual need. We work entirely within our clients’ parameters. For law firms and corporations, this means working exclusively within specific requirements for a candidate’s academic achievement and professional experience. We will identify and contact only those candidates who fit those requirements. For individuals seeking placement, this means working with them to find the position best suited to their situation. We will take the time to talk with candidates, to understand their particular goals and needs, and we will only present opportunities that match these goals and needs.
