Search
Build a precise candidate shortlist in minutes
Search 850,000+ profiles using legal-specific filters such as practice area, seniority, jurisdiction, law school, years of experience, and more. Exclude recent movers or specific firms, leaving you with a list of candidates that match your exact search criteria.
Connections
Find the warm introduction before you make the first call
Pirical maps 10 million+ shared connections based on each lawyer's career history, education, and deals worked. Spot who at your firm can introduce you to a target candidate before you reach out cold.
Shortlists
Brief hiring partners with data and easy to access shortlists
When an open role spec is too narrow to find enough candidates, share the search results with the hiring partner to expand accordingly. Once you have a complete shortlist, export it as a PDF, Excel, or Word doc and easily share with relevant stakeholders.
Client work
Understand a partner's client relationships before you approach them
Client work data gives you a clear picture of the clients and industries each partner has worked with. Go into early conversations already knowing what business a candidate might bring to your firm.
"We’ve always had a policy that we don’t work with agencies right away, we try to use our own resources first. Whether it’s a niche practice or a national search, we do our own proactive searches. An attorney search database makes it so much easier to find people that match what you’re looking for."
Natalie Quinn
Director of Legal Recruitment at Fox Rothschild
