Juristech Associates, Ltd., “Juristech” is an attorney and patent agent search firm specializing in the placement of attorneys and registered patent agents for law firms and corporations nationwide. Our search firm, comprised of dedicated researchers and recruiters assists general practice and patent partners, associates and patent agents in optimizing their career decisions by providing timely and exhaustive information about the state of the legal job market in any U.S. location. Through the enhancement of the quantity and quality of opportunities available to candidates we correspondingly promote the optimization of hiring decisions of our law firm and corporate clientele- by striving to provide our hiring firm clients a comprehensive list of qualified and suitably motivated candidates.

Juristech differentiates itself from other search firms because of its unique size and structure. The firm is wholly owned by its President, Nicholas Kokoris, Esq., an Illinois admitted attorney who has been active in the legal recruitment field since 1987. The ownership structure permits Juristech to offer lifetime loyalty to law firms and companies which hire a Juristech referred candidate. Our company will not unilaterally approach attorneys or patent agents regarding job opportunities who are currently employed by a Juristech client. For small law firms, Juristech can offer flexible payment terms which search firms with higher overhead, cannot similarly provide.

Mr. Kokoris personally interviews each candidate to determine the nature and level of sincerity regarding the candidate’s job search. We strive to separate the qualified and truly motivated candidate from the applicant with intentions inconsistent with the best interest of our hiring firm clientele. Mr. Kokoris strives to establish a personal connection with every candidate he meets, so that the conduct of each candidate is an extension of a personal relationship rather than an internet generated data hunt. Mr. Kokoris personally secures the consent of each candidate and hiring firm client before any identifying information is exchanged between candidate and hiring client.

Juristech will work in cooperation with a select group of legal search firms and professional researchers to optimize the placement of a candidate or to identify the most suitable candidate for a hiring client when such a need is required.

Juristech is a national search firm due to its long history of placing patent attorneys and agents. The registered patent professional market is a national market which requires research capacity embracing the U.S. market. In 1997, we broadened our scope to include general practice attorneys in the most popular practice areas- and utilized our experience in making national patent placements to the general attorney market.

Juristech strives to assist all candidates in optimizing their career options through our philosophy of exhaustive telephonic and internet-based, research.

Juristech has placed attorneys with some of the largest publicly traded corporations and the best known general practice and intellectual property boutique law firms in the United States. A list of our representative clients will be furnished upon written request.

Juristech complies with a code of conduct more stringent than the ethical standards set forth by the National Association of Legal Search Consultants, N.A.L.S.C. (See www.nalsc.org).
