Our Mission
At Ryker Joseph & Brick, we don’t just connect you with opportunities — we advocate for you.
We understand BigLaw because we know exactly how firms evaluate talent — and how to position you to win. Our job is to help you make a move that improves your platform, compensation, and long-term trajectory, without putting your reputation at risk.
You’re not a résumé to us. You’re our client.
Why We Are Different
Three things that set us apart::
-We represent associates — exclusively. Your goals always come first.
-Total transparency. You always know the firm, the decision-maker, and the true fit.
-Strategy before submissions. We shape your narrative and target only roles that move your career forward.
Traditional recruiters often optimize for speed and fees.
We built Ryker Joseph & Brick to optimize for your long-term outcome.
Our Services
At Ryker Joseph & Brick, we guide BigLaw associates through every stage of a lateral move.

Our mission is simple: secure opportunities that align with your ambitions — and advocate for you at every step.
Our Process
Lateral moves, made simple - and fully confidential.
How it works:
Quick Intro Call (10-15 minutes)
We learn what you want this move to accomplish — practice focus, platform, compensation, billables, culture, hybrid preferences, timing, and non-negotiables.
Targeted Role List
Our team builds a short, curated list of roles that meet your criteria. You review on your schedule, with zero pressure.
You Pick, We Present
You decide what to pursue. We handle strategy, narrative framing, and submissions directly to decision-makers.

When a firm wants to meet, we coordinate scheduling and preparation. Optional high-impact interview coaching ensures you walk in confident and prepared.

We guide you through each round, keep you informed, and debrief after every conversation to refine your approach.
