The Recruiter Spotlight on Young Mayden is part of the Legal Recruiter Directory’s new series showcasing leading legal recruiting firms nationwide.
Young Mayden Legal Search has again been singled out for its exemplary approach in placing legal professionals, earning a Recruiter Spotlight from the Legal Recruiter Directory. With a foundation built on deep relationships and ethical recruiting, the firm continues to stand out among peers.
Founded by veteran attorneys Ken Young and Barbara Mayden, Young Mayden has earned a reputation for matching attorneys to environments where they thrive. From its hubs in Charlotte and Nashville, the team works with law firms, corporate legal departments, and institutions across the U.S.
As Principal Ken Young, Esq. explains, entry-level roles such as research, document review, and many paralegal tasks are increasingly being reduced by technology. This shift has created pressure for young lawyers, with the impact varying depending on the market and the type of practice — a challenge the firm helps candidates and clients navigate.
This awareness of change in the legal landscape reflects the firm’s commitment to forward thinking. Young Mayden is a member of the National Association of Legal Search Consultants (NALSC) and adheres to its Code of Ethics, helping protect candidates and clients alike.
