The Column: Volume 4, Issue 2 - July 2008

Summer greetings from Special Counsel. This is the latest issue of the Special Counsel newsletter, The Column, a quarterly publication designed as a resource in the navigation of the legal staffing world. As you may know, Jodi Nadler, Esq. has for several years served as the editor of The Column, but, sadly for us, she has decided to retire to spend more time with her family. Jodi has a marvelous reputation as a permanent placement expert and bestowed on us her expertise and wisdom, not to mention her tireless drive for success. We wish her well for the future and that she is as successful as she was in the legal staffing world.

This newsletter focuses on the important topic of diversity recruiting, and provides tips on retaining your valued staff, whether contract professionals or full time personnel. Our “retention” authors are two stars at Special Counsel who have a combined experience in legal staffing of over twenty years, Elizabeth Parks, the director of our New Orleans office, and Stephanie Newman, the director of our New Jersey office. Stephanie has also provided us a more in-depth piece on Jodi. 

As always, we welcome any suggestions, comments or questions you would like to share with us so that we may incorporate your thoughts into future editions of the newsletter. Please email us at the following address: column@specialcounsel.com.

Hope you enjoy this issue and have a good summer!

David J. Maldonado, Esq., Editor
Senior Vice President, Special Counsel
