We recruit exceptional candidates for all levels of legal and compliance positions for our corporate, financial services and law firm clients.

Anne Angowitz founded Preferred Placement with the desire to “save a lawyer from their fate.” To Anne, this meant placing the most talented attorneys to premier companies and unique law firm opportunities. While initially focused on legal positions, the increasing regulatory environment over the last decade led Preferred Placement to the forefront of compliance recruiting. We have since expanded our repertoire to include various executive searches and consulting projects. With over thirty years of experience, the Preferred Placement team of recruiters remains true to the goals first set out by Anne: delivering uncompromising, passionate service to clients and candidates, with honesty and integrity.

The Preferred Placement team consists of “recovering attorneys” and experienced recruiters. Our deep insight and breadth of experience is a valuable asset to our clients and candidates. Above all, Preferred Placement works as a team to find the next great hire for your company – or rung for your career. Our client base is global, consisting of leading public and private companies and large and boutique law firms. Our reach across industries is all-inclusive; including financial and business services, consumer products, healthcare, industrial, and technology, to name just a few.
