Matthew Pond
FOUNDER / RECRUITER

Life’s an adventure! Chapters of my own include corporate lawyer, documentary filmmaker and legal recruiter; I’ve been an advocate in every role I’ve had which makes me uniquely qualified to represent you. Since 2008 I’ve been placing lawyers in law firms throughout the world, and since January 2012, my focus has been on the California legal market. Allow my experience to help you create the next chapter of your story.

I graduated from the Australian National University with a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Laws. As a recruiter in Sydney, Australia, I placed Australian and New Zealand lawyers in UK and Middle Eastern roles. Prior to working in the recruitment field in the US I was a corporate lawyer with Paul Weiss Rifkind Wharton & Garrison in New York. More recently, I worked at two California legal search firms before founding ATB. In my spare time I enjoy hiking with my dog Joey, meditation and yoga.
