Testimonials

I registered with Essential Legal Staff as I started my job search and found them to be very professional and courteous. They really listened to what I was looking for in a job. They took the time to help me tailor my resume and found me the perfect job within my first week of registering with Essential Legal. I can’t thank Nikki enough for all her help and expertise.Sherrie, Legal Secretary, Candidate
I had the most fantastic experience working with Essential Legal Staff in the search for my legal secretary. They took the lead in searching for candidates, weeding out those they did not feel would be a good fit, and presenting me those that they felt I would be interested in. The process was easy, painless and, best of all, quick! I feel like it cut out the majority of the difficult aspects of the interviewing process that are generally exhausting. I now have a secretary that I could not be happier with and is the best fit imaginable.Jessica, Attorney, Client
I highly recommend Nikki as a legal recruiter. Through my previous job searches, I have used other recruiting firms without any success. Nikki is professional, effective and found me a suitable position in a short period of time. She thoroughly prepared me for my interview and advocated on my behalf to ensure the position offered was the right one for me. I look forward to recommending others to Nikki and to working with her in the future should the need ever arise.Sandra, Attorney, Candidate
Let me relate my first experience with Essential Legal Staff. I needed a paralegal (or so I thought) for our law firm specializing Insurance Defense. Naturally I went to a trusted consultant that I had used before. I have been working with Nikki for about 8 years. I know that if I call even rarely, Nikki treats me like I am her largest customer. As we started working through the process of finding a paralegal, one of our attorneys quit. So, the paralegal was put on hold. Soon thereafter, we were looking to replace that attorney. The search turned into a two pronged search which is an undertaking for this small law office. Then the partners decided no additional paralegal was needed, but we still need to replace the attorney.

As true as her professional friendship is, Nikki and Essential Legal Staff never wavered. I knew I was taking a job away from them, but like always, Nikki adjusted and found us exceptional applicants. Here’s how I know the applicants are exceptional. We placed an ad while Essential Legal Staff was trying to fill the position as well. With 8 interviews from that ad and 3 interviews from Essential Legal Staff. The applicant we chose came from Essential Legal Staff. We know that the applicants from the ad come with no fee. But, still want the best applicant and Essential Legal Staff provided us that service.

During the process, my partners asked if we should try a different staffing company. I said no way. Like our Law Firm, a company is only as good as the people that work there and care about the company. And Nikki cares. She treats me, and I assume all of her customers, like they are family and she wants the best candidate for me whenever I call.

Ask me if I’ll use Essential Legal Staff again… I’ll laugh at you. Of course! Thank you so very much Essential Legal Staff for all you do to fill our professional staffing needs. Brian, Firm Administrator, Client
