		What Our Clients Are Saying
	I hate litigation. I hate it with a fiery, fiery passion. Even though I was at an Am Law 100 firm, I basically could not stand my job one minute longer. Thanks for helping me make the transition to a job I love! - Jill My law degree was earned in China. I thought getting a summer job with my background was impossible because my career services office couldn't help me, but Legal Authority's marketing got me the job. I'm so grateful. - Z.Y. I already have 11 interviews lined up, and the calls still keeping pouring in for more. All this has happened within only three weeks after I sent out the personalized mailings that Legal Authority prepared for me. - Tony I thought about using Legal Authority after I used its sister company, Attorney Resume. At first, I was not sure if I needed a targeted mailing or even believed in it. After I talked with an Employment Advocate and learned just how such a mailing could help me, I signed on. I sent out about 145 letters on a Wednesday, and I got calls for interviews on that Friday and Saturday. I am still interviewing and have two offers so far! - N.D. I just graduated from Brooklyn Law School and I want to thank you for helping me through the job search process. So far I have two interviews, I will let you know how they go. - C.B. Just an update: I've had three firms contact me. One for a position I wasn't interested in (ERISA), and two of which I've already had a formal phone interview. Of those two, I haven't heard back from one yet (it's been about 10 days since the phone interview); the other invited me back, and is flying me to interview at their office next week to meet with several people. - Patrick S. I would like to thank you for all of your help during this process. I truly could not have done it without you or Legal Authority. Given the nature of the profession, I believe that an attorney looking for a job must consider Legal Authority a necessary, indispensable service. The cost is money well spent. As a person who tried to find a job on his own once, my advice to others is: don't do it. Your likelihood of finding the best position is drastically reduced. After using Legal Authority, I received 10 requests for interviews! For this reason, I was able to make an informed choice that best suited me, rather than settle for a firm because it was the only one that offered me a job. I can assure you, this is a much better position to be in. I intend to recommend Legal Authority to all of my friends in the profession who are looking for other positions. Thanks again. - Mike M. Thanks to the mailings, I got 6 interviews and 4 offers and I'm still hearing from firms asking for more credentials and interviews. It took some time working with the writer to get the perfect cover letter, but within days of dropping in the mail 500+ letters to San Francisco and Sacramento firms, I began getting calls and emails for interviews. Choosing two legal markets paid off for me because my first choice city was much less responsive. Within about 7 weeks from dropping the letters in the mail, I accepted an offer from an SF firm where I will be earning more money than I had anticipated. One hiring partner pointed to the strength of my cover letter in deciding to call me in for an interview, despite his aversion to hiring recent graduates. At least two of the firms that made offers weren't officially hiring. I almost did not use Legal Authority because I did not have the money for it, and my career services adviser frowned upon large, direct mailings. But the deferred payment option and the prospect of writing hundreds of cover letters while studying for the bar convinced me to try it. The service yielded results I could not get with on-campus interviewing, my adviser's help, or my own small-scale efforts. I would certainly use Legal Authority again, and have recommended it to some of my classmates still looking for jobs out of law school. - T.T. MORE TESTIMONIALS
