Want to move to Miami-Dade County? So do a lot of other people. Miami-Dade's population increased by 87,388 people between 2000 and 2003, bringing the total county population to more than 2.3 million, according to estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau. Miami-Dade is the eighth-largest county in the nation, and the increase in its number of new residents ranked thirteenth among all counties in the nation.

Miami is a large city with busy dockets, many big businesses, and a fast-paced professional life. Up-and-coming fields in Miami include entertainment, environmental, and import-export law. And if you are interested in securities law, real estate, or litigation, there are always plenty of viable opportunities here. Immigration law is also a very busy practice area, and international banking and tax work have skyrocketed recently. Litigation is the best bet for those seeking new opportunities, but transactional opportunities do exist.

Miami does not have the mega-firms seen in many large cities, with most Miami-based firms staying at medium to small sizes. Even the largest firms, such as Greenberg Traurig, only hire 10 summer associates every year. With fewer entry-level positions at firms in Miami than in most cities and four law schools, competition is tough for all lawyers in this town.

Miami is not what you might think of when you think of a Southern city, in which everyone knows each other and the legal profession is steeped in civility. Many of the attorneys we spoke with likened the pace of legal life here to the faster feel of Los Angeles, New York, or San Francisco.

Still, while the pace may be more like New York than Savannah, most of all, Miami is a highly diverse international city, often called "The Gateway to Latin America," where many international businesses make a home base. Keep in mind that Miami-Dade County holds several municipalities all packed into southeast Florida, including Miami, Miami Beach, Coral Gables, and Fort Lauderdale.

By all accounts, the cost of living is going up in Miami, but business is booming as well. You'll see more competition for that legal job than you might in other places, but you also might see a higher salary than in smaller markets. You'll need it if you want to buy a house, as housing prices are increasing.

Miami also holds more nations than you can imagine if you live elsewhere in the country. Far more people in Miami speak only Spanish than only English. It is not uncommon to hear people speaking Creole, French, or German. Tourism, international banking, and a very strong connection to Latin America make this city highly diverse.

Here is a sample of BCG Attorney Search’s recent law firm placements in the Miami area:

BCG Attorney Search’s Unique Approach to Recruiting

Our recruiters are the best in the business! We are very familiar with the Miami and United States legal markets. We have worked with thousands of attorney candidates and have successfully placed attorneys with the best firms in Florida and around the globe. Many of our recruiters are also attorneys—with degrees from top law schools and experience working in competitive, international law firms. Our recruiters know what it takes to succeed in a law firm environment and understand exactly what law firms are looking for. BCG Attorney Search recruiters are committed to using their talents and resources to help create mutually beneficial and lasting employment relationships between law firms and attorneys.

BCG recruiters also distinguish themselves by their comprehensive, supportive approach to recruiting. We stay with you from the beginning of the process to the very end. We take the time to get to know our candidates face-to-face and take pride in our ability to get to know our candidates personally and not just professionally. We do not just gather facts on paper about academic achievements and work history; we get to know you. This is the only way we can accurately determine the best law firm fit for you and at the same time convincingly advocate on your behalf.

We walk our attorneys through every step in the recruiting process and make sure they learn as much as possible about the law firms before they ever go to an interview. We also follow up after each interview with both the attorney candidate and law firm to ensure that both parties had an ideal experience and obtained whatever information they need to make decisions.

National and International Attorney Placements

BCG recruiters have established lifelong relationships with top law firms in Miami and the Southern states, as well as throughout the United States and entire world. Our recruiters make a point of keeping a close eye on market trends so that we know what each firm is looking for at all times. We take the time to understand each firm – including its unique personality, culture and work ethic. We want to know that each candidate we send to a firm is going to succeed, not only for the candidate’s sake but also so that the law firm will thrive and meet its goals.

Code of Conduct and Confidentiality

At BCG Attorney Search, we maintain a very strict Code of Conduct with the attorneys with whom we work. We do not share any information about an attorney with any law firm unless the attorney has given us direct permission to do so. Moreover, we firmly believe that confidentiality must be maintained at all times.

BCG Database Advantage

We work with the top attorneys and top law firms in the world. As a result, we have a database that far exceeds that of our competitors. We have no doubt that we have the most capable and prestigious attorneys available for the very best law firms throughout the United States, including Miami and the entire State of Florida.
