Dan worked with me on moving a large team from one international firm to another. It was a complicated process with many moving parts, but Dan was always calm and all over the detail, handling the difficulties of dealing with different personalities and different needs extremely well. He kept me updated on a regular basis without overburdening my inbox and me.

Rory is incredible to work with and is amazing at his role. I highly recommend working with Rory who is not only thorough and dedicated but is also approachable and friendly. It was a pleasure being able to work with Rory and I really think he is one of the best in the market.

Christian is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with. He listens (a completely understated trait in the industry) and carefully worked to ensure the right opportunities were presented. This was undoubtedly a result of his industry and market knowledge, which sets him apart in the industry. He is also pragmatic, underpromises and overdelivers. I’d use him again.

Sean and the team were brilliant in walking me through their detailed knowledge of the market and taking the time to really understand what I was looking for. The process was smooth throughout - I found the interview preparation sessions with Sean to be very helpful, and having all the admin around setting up and arriving at the interviews dealt with by Sean was fantastic. When it came to choosing between multiple offers, I felt Sean was focussed on making sure it was the right choice for me. I’d highly recommend any associate who is thinking about their future to catch up with Sean!

I have worked with Dan and Veritas Partners extensively over the last few months. They are extremely professional and knowledgeable about the legal market. But most of all they are adept at creating excellent opportunities with firms. I think this is because they are willing to invest time getting to know candidates and their business case, and are then able to use their market knowledge to find the right targets. It also helps that Dan appears to be highly regarded by senior lawyers, and is skilled at articulating his candidate's case. I highly recommend.

Very personable and professional firm. They took the time to fully understand my requirements and secured interviews with top law firms. Great support for the interviews and business plan preparation. Highly recommended.

Rory was so helpful throughout the whole recruitment process. He kept me updated on the firm’s procedure and timeline, and helped me to prepare for the interviews and assessments. I couldn’t have done it without him!

The process was very smooth and I was impressed with the way you conduct yourselves. Veritas is top of my list for when we next look to hire and I’d be happy to recommend to my colleagues in our other practice areas.

Veritas continually impress us with their understanding of our specific hiring needs, together with the quality of candidates they deliver (even when given niche search parameters). It’s unusual for recruiters to deliver on both grounds, consistently. We know that every CV landing in our inbox is carefully considered and worth reviewing. Daniel and Rory’s sector knowledge and user friendly approach has been instrumental in helping us build a market leading practice.

Dan has a first rate understanding of the market and always goes the extra mile in finding the right candidate, I wholeheartedly recommend him.
