“I am pleased to recommend Larry Watanabe to any partner considering a lateral move.  Larry’s knowledge of the legal market is unparalleled.  His longstanding relationships with firm leaders and practitioners across a wide range of practice areas enables him to take a truly holistic approach to evaluating any potential opportunity.

Larry is also uniquely positioned, not only to identify opportunities, but also to assess their relative value in light of your specific objectives and career goals.  His focus is on finding the right long-term fit—not simply facilitating a move.

Working with Larry was a pleasure at every stage of the process.  He is incredibly hardworking, exceptionally responsive, and an outstanding advisor.  His counsel extends well beyond the economics of a lateral move.  He provides thoughtful guidance through every step of the process, helping navigate the many nuances and strategic considerations with sound judgment and unwavering support.

I am grateful to have worked with Larry and would recommend him without hesitation to any partner considering a strategic lateral move.”

“I retained Larry to advise me as my team and I evaluated potential opportunities with other law firms.  Throughout the process, he served as a trusted advisor, providing thoughtful guidance, candid feedback, and valuable insight into the legal market.  Larry combines deep knowledge of law firm economics, partner and team compensation, and team transitions with exceptional professionalism and discretion.  He took the time to understand our goals and priorities and consistently offered practical, well-reasoned advice tailored to our circumstances.  What impressed me most was Larry’s sound judgment and commitment to helping us make informed decisions for the long-term.  He was responsive, trustworthy, and focused on finding the right fit rather than simply facilitating a move.  I would not hesitate to recommend Larry to partners, practice groups, or law firm leaders considering strategic career opportunities or firm transitions.”

“Mark was instrumental in bringing me to Norton Rose Fulbright at the pinnacle of my career.  I am so grateful to him and the team that decided to join alongside me.  Mark is extremely responsive and I never felt pressured, just supported and informed.  Thank you!”
