Klein Landau & Edelman is one of the oldest continually operating legal search firms in the United States; our predecessor companies date to the early 1980s. We are the dominant legal search firm in Washington, DC, particularly in the Trade and National Security sectors. We have been recognized for over ten consecutive years by the Washington Business Journal on their annual list of top executive recruiters.

We represent and successfully place attorneys at all levels of experience with a majority of the American Lawyer Top 200 law firms. Our clients also include many midsize and boutique law firms. We have managed exclusive searches on behalf of Fortune 500 companies, trade associations and corporations of all sizes, and we are regularly called upon by our former candidates to fill their ongoing attorney hiring needs from the general counsel to the staff attorney level.
