Pynes & Moerner is the only executive search firm in Russia to have a separate practice for handling legal search assignments on behalf of law firms. Our consultants were pioneers in this field. Since 1996 they have completed over 300 high-profile legal search projects. Our candidates hold partner, counsel and senior associate positions with leading international and Russian law firms.

The success of Pynes & Moerner Legal Search is driven by continuous and meticulous monitoring of the legal job market, which our Research Department helps to conduct. Thanks to the relatively small size of the Russian legal sector, we are personally acquainted with the majority of Moscow legal professionals, and are able to keep track of all the career moves in this industry.

Ongoing monitoring and broad professional contacts among the CIS legal professionals give us insight into any emerging trends. Thanks to a sharp focus and continuous research and analysis we can be of use to our clients not only through executive search but are also able to offer detailed reports on the current state of affairs in the legal sector, hereby assisting companies to make well-informed decisions on attracting and retaining top-talent. Another popular service is consulting clients on remuneration and motivation policies.
