Clairemont is a boutique legal recruitment firm — a very small team of specialists placing partners and teams at the top of the profession. Personal, discreet, and exceptionally well connected.
We work only at the top of the profession — partner-level and leadership appointments, across private practice.
Individual partner appointments, discreetly handled from first approach to signed offer.
Coordinated moves of practice groups and multi-partner teams.
The considered transition of clients, relationships, and leadership.
Senior advisory and non-executive appointments with a legal remit.
The same care, whichever side of the table you're on.
We find the partners and teams who will shape your next decade — discreetly, and from a field far wider than the names already in circulation.
We advise you on the market, the options, and the timing — in confidence, and with your own interests placed first, always.
Being small isn't a limitation — it's the whole point. It's what lets us give every search our full attention.
A handful of mandates at a time, each with our full and personal attention.
Decades of relationships at the most senior end of the profession.
The conversations that matter happen quietly, and stay that way.
Names withheld, as they always will be — but a sense of the introductions we make.
The introductions that matter are never rushed.Clairemont
Clairemont is a small, senior team of specialists — and we believe the strongest appointments come from looking wider, not narrower. We champion diverse partner and leadership hires, and search accordingly.
We are deliberately small and hands-on — personally invested and involved in every search, from the first call to the final offer. When you work with Clairemont, you work with us, not a chain of hands.
Whether you're building a team or thinking about your own next move, we'd love to hear from you — in complete confidence.
