About |
Nomenlex Inc. is a boutique legal search and recruitment firm headquartered at 315 Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10017.
We place attorneys — associates, senior associates, of counsel, and partners — exclusively at mid-size New York law firms of 50 to 200 attorneys. This is a deliberate focus. Mid-size firms form the backbone of New York's legal economy and have been systematically underserved by volume-based national search firms. Nomenlex was built to fix that.
Our Model:
Culture-First Matching — Credentials matter. Culture fit determines whether a placement lasts. We screen for both with equal rigor.
Contingency-Based Fees — Law firms pay nothing until we deliver a successful placement. No retainers. No upfront costs. No fee if we don't place.
90-Day Placement Guarantee — Every hire is backed by our guarantee. One replacement candidate at no charge if a placement does not work out within the guarantee period.
Zero Cost to Attorney Candidates — Attorneys pay absolutely nothing. Not a retainer, not a deposit, not a percentage. This is not a policy we revisit — it is fundamental to how Nomenlex operates.
Our Services:
- Associate & Senior Associate Placement (0–9 years)
- Of Counsel Search
- Partner Placement
- Practice Group Buildouts
- Attorney Career Representation (zero cost to candidates)
- Legal Tech Platform — currently in development
Who We Work With:
We work exclusively with mid-size New York law firms — typically between 50 and 200 attorneys. We place across all major practice areas including litigation, corporate/M&A, real estate, employment, finance, intellectual property, tax, white collar, and bankruptcy.
Our Vision:
Nomenlex was founded with a larger vision — to build a legal technology marketplace connecting firms and businesses with bar-verified attorneys on demand. That platform is currently in development. Today, our legal search practice is the engine that funds and proves that vision — one successful placement at a time.
