Lord Quoted in Compliance Reporter

In an article entitled “Street Attorneys Head for Private Practice” from the September 22, 2008 edition of the Compliance Reporter, it states:

Recruiter Michael Lord of Michael Lord & Co. in New York said law firm demand is making up for the drop in demand from B/D legal and compliance placements. “We’re seeing the biggest demand in plaintiffs’ securities class actions,” he said. “That’s really picked up the slack.” Lord said compliance officers from B/Ds with electronic record keeping experience will be sought after as law firms engage in e-discovery work.
