PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macrae, a premier transatlantic legal search firm that places partners, groups and senior government attorneys at the world’s leading law firms, is pleased to share the news that Lawdragon has recognized more than half of its recruiters as 2022 Global 100 Leaders in Legal Strategy & Consulting. The eight recruiters featured in the publisher’s highly regarded annual guide to the “crème de la crème of the legion of advisors who assist firms” represent each of the firm’s four geographic markets. They include Justine Donahue, Lauren Drake, and Jane Sullivan Roberts in Washington, D.C.; Suzanne Kane and Joe Macrae in the San Francisco Bay Area; Jon Truster in New York; and Andy Russell and Melinda Wallman in London. Donahue, Kane and Truster appear for the first time, while the others have been honored in the past. “It’s exciting to see so many Macrae recruiters named to the Lawdragon 100. I am immensely proud of the challenging work all of my colleagues perform day in and day out, not only as individuals but working within and across our four geographic markets to deliver exceptional service to candidates and clients,” said Joe Macrae, Founder and Chairman. “Our goal when we set out to strengthen and expand our presence in the world’s major legal markets five years ago was to bring on recruiters who were not only ‘the best,’ but who also shared a desire to be part of a transparent and highly collaborative organization that didn’t operate like a traditional recruiting firm. It is gratifying to have Lawdragon recognize eight of us for our commitment to helping partner-level lawyers and law firms navigate the increasingly complex legal marketplace – and it bolsters our belief that our diligent efforts to create and maintain a collective intelligence have been well worthwhile.”
