A law firm had the potential to gain significant new healthcare mergers and acquisitions work. To handle the work without burning out the team, the firm needed to add an additional counsel-level attorney but was reluctant to make such an expensive, permanent hire until they were more confident that the new work would be long-term.
SolutionLatitude provided the law firm with a counsel-level healthcare mergers and acquisitions attorney with prior Big Law and public healthcare company, in-house experience to serve on a six month engagement. Shortly into the second, six-month term the law firm determined that the new M&A work would continue long-term, and that the Latitude Attorney was a great fit. The firm hired the attorney in a permanent position.
A Fortune Global 500 company lost its senior in-house environmental counsel to a long-term leave of absence. The company did not want to backfill the position with a permanent hire in hopes that the long-time colleague would be able to return. The company requested that its global law firm second a senior environmental attorney; however, the firm’s billing rates were too high.
SolutionThe client’s law firm identified an ideal attorney and reached out to Latitude in the hopes of utilizing our structure to create a solution for its client. We were able to hire the attorney identified by the law firm due to our law firm-level benefits and compensation and second the attorney to the client at a sustainable rate.
