As experts on Michigan's legal market, the firm has developed beneficial relationships with clients, law firms, and corporations alike.

Fees are only charged if a law firm or company is presented with a candidate whom they deem qualified to hire. Newman Hawkins makes that guarantee with full faith in its recruiters' ability to screen and present only competent and desirable job candidates.
Corporations looking for in-house counsel make up about half of the firm's business. With connections to attorney candidates throughout the nation, Newman Hawkins is capable of quickly reaching a large pool of qualified local and out-of-state candidates.
Prior to conducting any search, recruiters meet with law firm clients to establish an ideal candidate profile. In order to establish a successful and long term fit between client and attorney candidate, recruiters take more into consideration than employment history alone. A number of factors are weighed including the goals, personalities, and ideals of both the candidate and the law firm or company.
Merger and acquisition matters are also frequently brought before Newman Hawkins. The firm has been called upon to locate merger candidates and also to act as an intermediary during negotiations.
Newman Hawkins is affiliated with the Arizona legal consulting firm, Phyllis Hawkins and Associates.
