Ilene Whitman is a Principal with The Whitman Group, a leading attorney recruiting firm with offices in New York, California and Texas. Ilene works in the New York office and has been a legal recruiter since 1989. She has placed associates, partners and senior in-house counsel, including General Counsel, into law firms and corporations based in the United States, Europe & Asia. Ilene opened her own recruiting firm, The Whitman Group, in 2002.

She is proud of her reputation as one of the most effective recruiters in the New York area. She has been told by several firms that the percentage of her candidates hired is significantly greater when compared to any other search firm they use---she does not waste the time of clients or candidates.

Many of her candidates, whether placed or not, are very appreciative of her efforts and knowledge of the industry and they call on The Whitman Group first (and often exclusively) to fill their legal staffing needs when they move into hiring positions. The fact that most of her candidates and clients come to her through referrals is the best testament to Ilene’s reputation.

Experience.  Integrity.  Knowledge.  Results.  The Whitman Group.
