Our Services : Candidates

Legal Search & Management, Inc. has been placing legal assistants in permanent and temporary positions since 1989. Founded and operated by a former paralegal, Linda S. Jevahirian quickly earned a reputation for being able to locate and identify not just jobs, but career opportunities.

At Legal Search & Management, Inc. we help our applicants assess their current status and make an educated decision about the next move. Our job is to make qualified candidates aware of opportunities as they become available, and to help them determine whether or not they are suitable. Legal assistants who keep their antenna up have been amazed at the results.

The real test is figuring out if a change of employment is in the best interest of the legal assistant. It is less about moving people from position to position and more about career placement. Being able to determine where a person is in their profession and which positions will offer them an opportunity to move forward is a distinct challenge. Sometimes people think they want a new job but what we really find out is that they are running from a situation they actually have the power to improve.

The legal assistant field is unique in that it takes an extremely creative effort to attain upward mobility. Most legal assistants are convinced that they need to find a new employer in order to progress. Sometimes this is not the case. There can be just as many reasons to stay in a position as there are to leave. Making this determination takes analysis and strategy and is not always an easy task.

Candidates should keep in mind that consulting with Legal Search & Management, Inc. does not necessarily mean changing jobs. Sometimes it is just nice to know that there is someone who will consider all the options before advising on the next move. We have had some monumental success influencing the careers of our candidates.
