HISTORY
The National Association of Legal Search Consultants (NALSC ®) is a
non-profit professional organization committed to upholding the highest
ethical standards in the legal search community.
Legal search developed in the late 1960’s, in response to the legal
community’s demand for specialized consulting services in the hiring of
attorneys. The industry increased dramatically through the decades.
The field expanded quickly, yet dialogue among legal search consultants
was virtually nonexistent. In addition, there was little or no focus on
ethical practice within the business. The credibility of legal search firms
among the legal and business communities was inconsistent due to the
tremendous variation in standards of practice.
Thus the National Association of Legal Search Consultants was founded
in 1984.
GOALS
NALSC® was founded by a group of the nation’s leading legal search
consultants whose primary goal was elevating the professionalism of the
field by establishing a Code of Ethics.
In addition to this goal, NALSC® is dedicated to:
 Raising the image of the legal search profession through a
national public relations effort;
 Providing education and information on trends and issues in
the industry.
ANNUAL CONFERENCE, SEMINARS & SYMPOSIUMS
NALSC® activities include producing an Annual Conference, Seminars,
and Symposiums on subjects of vital interest to the legal recruitment
industry. These events feature key speakers from law firms, corporations,
private entities, recruitment firms and related organizations. Formats
encompass speakers, panels, interactive round-table discussions, town
hall meeting, and more. Rounding out the continuing education element
of the conference, there are also networking receptions planned as well.

About NALSC®, continued
ARBITRATION SERVICE
An arbitration service has been established by NALSC® to facilitate the
resolution of disputes between member firms and other member firms.
Based on the American Arbitration Association rules and procedures, this
service utilizes NALSC® members as arbitrators.
NEWSLETTER
The NALSC® newsletter, distributed electronically to members, features
timely articles of interest to the legal search community including news
items and information concerning the Association’s activities.
WEBSITE
NALSC® offers an informative and interactive website. The site features
the most current issue of the newsletter, updates on current NALSC®
events and a complete membership listing with direct links to members’
websites. In early 2002, NALSC® launched a revitalized website. The
site includes a Members-Only section with access to enhanced features.
ASSOCIATE MEMBERS
NALSC® is pleased to acknowledge its Associate Members, a group of
members made up of suppliers vital to our industry. The NALSC®
Associate Membership category includes legal publications, vendors and
other sponsors of NALSC® events.
SUPPORTING LAW FIRM MEMBERS
Law firms nationwide show their support for NALSC® and its
continuing enforcement of the NALSC Code of Ethics® by becoming
Supporting Members of the Organization. Strengthening the lines of
communication between law firms, corporations and legal search
professionals is a vital role NALSC® performs in the legal community.

Legal Specialties: Committed Engagements - Most of our engagements are retained
or contingency-retainer searches, which require commitment from all parties throughout
the entire process. We become familiar with each client’s culture, fiscal goals and strategic
growth and succession plans by attending board meetings and hosting strategy sessions.
Working as a genuine partner with our clients, we deliver the ideal combinations of
flexibility and accountability.

professional network of contacts in legal and business communities nationwide and

gather valuable market feedback and analysis to assist in reinforcing your brand’s
reputation.
Loyalty, Integrity and Results - QPQ employs top shelf search consultants who work
on salary, not commission. Our search consultants are motivated not by personal gain, but
by the needs of each client and a commitment to excellence in search standards and ethics.
Team Synergy - Each attorney or executive recruitment effort is lead by a team of
talented and experienced licensed attorneys and business sector veterans who actively
cooperate to search out the most talented prospects within each client’s unique timeline.
Client Services - Before launching any search, we perform an in-depth evaluation of each
client’s unique requirements and corporate culture. To keep clients informed and engaged,
detailed progress updates are issued throughout the entire process. Theses updates include
valuable market feedback regarding the client’s reputation and perception within the
industry in comparison to that of their competitors, and what adjustments, if any, are
needed to attract top talent.
Candidate Due Diligence - We guide our select candidates through a rigorous screening
and evaluation process to qualify those few who have the talent, skill and experience
desired by the client – as well as the necessary work-ethic and personality fit. An internal
review by the collective search team is then conducted before final candidates are selected
for presentation to the client.
