In House & Special Situations

Not every lawyer’s next step is another law firm. Levitas Partners works with attorneys exploring opportunities inside companies, investment firms and other organizations, as well as roles that may fall outside the traditional practice of law but where legal training, judgment and experience are highly valued.

Our work includes traditional in-house counsel positions across levels and practice areas, from growing legal teams to senior leadership roles. We also focus on special situations—opportunities in business, investing, strategy, operations and other functions where an attorney’s ability to analyze complex issues, negotiate, manage risk and exercise sound judgment can provide a distinct advantage.

These searches require more than matching a résumé to a job description. We work to understand what an organization actually needs, how the role fits within the broader business and what type of lawyer—or legal background—will be most effective in the position.

For attorneys, we bring the perspective of people who understand both legal practice and the realities of building a career beyond the traditional law firm path. Whether the goal is to move in-house, take on a broader business role or pursue a less conventional opportunity, we help candidates evaluate not simply what they can do next, but what makes sense for the career they want to build.
