IQ Search

IQ Search helps law firms hire the right partners and build the right teams. We’re a specialist Legal Search firm that focuses mainly on partner and team moves in the UK and internationally. We are a remote-first firm, but we have hubs in London, Manchester, and Dublin. We have a central in-house research team. We work closely with our clients to understand what it is they need and then go out and find it with care, precision, and discretion. Our approach is research-led, discreet, and focused on long-term success, not quick wins. Reasons to instruct us: 1. We are lawyers and or have worked in the profession for over two decades. 2. We are not an agency and do not employ salespeople. 3. We consider our role and our work to be fiduciary. 4. We do not pay our consultants commission (although they are very highly valued and paid). 5. We do not pursue or accept instructions where there is a conflict of interest. 6. Our research is fresh, proprietary and encompasses personal networks, intelligence, data and AI. 7. Our research is shared with clients in each of our exclusive assignments. 8. Our fees are fixed at the point of instruction. 9. Our fees do not change if there is a change/increase in remuneration. 10. We encourage NDA's, off-limit agreements or arrangements. We focus on building meaningful relationships and adding value before chasing commercial instructions; We want you to see that you can trust us.
