Company Overview

Assigned Counsel, established in 1992, has been the paradigm for contract attorney services. The company's founding partners were lawyers, with over 20 years of practice experience in both the private practice and corporate counsel environs, and the owner of a well-established staffing company.

Assigned Counsel identifies, screens, and presents qualified attorneys for engagements in corporate law departments and law firms. Sophisticated proprietary software employed by Assigned Counsel together with extensive internet technology results in swift and accurate searches.

Contract attorneys are sourced for temporary, part or full-time engagements in practice areas ranging from Admiralty to Zoning, the A to Z of the legal profession.   Assigned Counsel also places attorneys in temp to perm and permanent positions.

From an initial base of operation addressing the metropolitan Philadelphia legal community, Assigned Counsel has replicated its successful services nationwide, with additional  offices in Washington, DC, New York/New Jersey, Chicago and Califronia/Arizona.
