 have had the good fortune of being able to call on Arnie to help me with a number of issues in running our firm - recruiting, personnel, retention, strategy and direction. He is a unique resource. Based on his considerable experience, both as a lawyer in a large firm, and from his years as a consultant to law firms, he has offered excellent insights, clear guidance, and effective follow-through on each issue. And even better, he does it with a liberal helping of good humor, something not often found in law firm consultants, and even more rarely found in law firms themselves.

 rnie is a breath of fresh air in the law firm consulting world. He is insightful, down to earth, creative, and (to use an overused phrase) able to think "outside the box" and, perhaps more importantly, to empower others to do the same. He has an acute sensitivity to the inner workings of large law firms, coupled with the rare gift of being able to bring that knowledge to bear in practical and constructive ways. As an added bonus, he makes it all fun (not to mention, funny)!

 uring my many years of involvement in management, I never worked with any consultant who was more responsive to his client's needs. Arnie is a very talented guy, with a keen knowledge of large law firms and the people who populate them. His insights were invaluable to me and I would recommend him to anyone.

have had the good fortune of attending Arnie's conferences and obtaining his guidance on a variety of recruiting and personnel issues. His experience and objectivity have been extremely helpful to me in managing a complex process during trying times. Arnie really has his "ear to the ground" on the issues that have a direct impact on our firm.

rnie is a unique resource because he has worked with so many top law firms around the country. He knows the personalities and quirks of each and can identify the recruiting and retention programs that will -- and won't -- work in a law firm's culture. He's fun to work with, responsive, and full of insights about trends in the legal market.

rnie's conferences are clearly "not to be missed" annual events. On the consulting side, he has provided a wealth of experience and value on all that he has done for us.

rnie is always a pleasure to work with - he combines his extensive knowledge of lawyer recruitment and retention with a good dose of humor and the ability to know what will (or will not) work in a particular situation. He is one of the most well respected law firm consultants in the country, and the reputation is well deserved.
