Our diverse and growing team is powered by a culture of shared intelligence that enables us to stay in sync with the most up-to-date market data, trends and insights - and on the pulse of the global legal industry. 

Macrae is laser-focused on placing lateral partners, partner-groups, and top government attorneys transitioning to private practice into the most successful global law firms - primarily those ranking in the Am Law 50 and UK top 20. Our clients and candidates say we stand out not only because our recruiters are unparalleled in their experience, knowledge and networks, but because we operate with the highest standards of integrity, discretion, efficiency, and professionalism. We collaborate with clients to meet their precise needs, bringing them stellar candidates and thoughtful presentations. We treat every search as a diversity search; historically, more than one-third of our placements have been women attorneys and attorneys of color. We get to know our candidates well, sometimes over a period of several years, offering candid and informed advice with the singular goal of helping each one advance their careers and flourish in every respect moving forward. 

Macrae was founded in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2001 as Mlegal Group. Today, we're proud to have thriving offices in London, New York, Washington, D.C., Palo Alto and San Francisco.
