Company OverviewMission StatementTo provide professional recruiting services to the legal community, focusing on the integrity, ethics, and diligence of both our own business practices and those of our candidates. History Carol Palmer founded Palmer Legal Staffing in 1997 after 16 years as a law firm administrator at three firms whose managing partners consistently praised her hiring of highly qualified support staff. Today, she is both the president of Palmer Legal Staffing and head of the direct-hire placement division. Carol’s respect for the legal and business professionals who make hiring decisions complements her understanding of just how important these decisions are and the core capabilities needed to staff law firms and other businesses. With “hands-on” knowledge of the time constraints, business practices, client relations, and work ethics of modern law firms and other business offices, Carol sorts through myriad qualified candidates to best match the needs of a particular office. Growth and Awards At its outset, Palmer Legal Staffing consisted solely of its founder and made only direct-hire placements. The company now employs eight professionals in its own office and fills temporary and temp-to-hire positions in addition to direct hires. Over the past nine years, the number of Palmer-placed temporaries working in clients’ offices has risen from an average of 20 a day to more than 150. This substantial growth has been lauded by The Washington Business Journal with the following awards: |
