Company Description
Claypoole Search is a premier executive search firm specializing in the recruitment of legal and compliance professionals for registered investment advisors (RIAs) and other alternative asset managers, including hedge funds, private equity, venture capital, family offices, and crypto/DeFi and tech-focused managers. Founded by David Claypoole—who brings nearly 40 years of experience at the intersection of law and asset management and has made hundreds of successful placements—the firm is distinguished by credibility, capability, and confidentiality. Claypoole leads senior mandates for General Counsel, Chief Legal Officer, Associate General Counsel, and Chief Compliance Officer while the team also supports hiring from Legal Assistant upward, ensuring clients can build or scale entire L&C departments. With a deep, cultivated network of top law firm partners, general counsels, and C-level HR leaders, Claypoole Search engages exceptional, often passive candidates from the most relevant firms and practices, emphasizing long-term fit and retention. The firm’s tight focus on investment management L&C and its close tracking of regulatory developments underpin advisory strength in organizational design, best practices, and market compensation; its longstanding Legal & Compliance Compensation Survey—available only to participants and clients—is widely cited as a trusted benchmark. While most active across the East and West Coasts of the United States, Claypoole Search delivers global coverage through a curated affiliate network in major financial hubs such as London, Dublin, Hong Kong, Singapore, and beyond, providing clients a single, discreet point of accountability for international searches. Reflecting its values, the firm donates a portion of annual net profits to organizations that champion diversity, equity, and inclusion, notably supporting Prep for Prep, and co-founded LimPiaR to improve coastal communities in Puerto Rico. Formerly known as Parks Legal Placement, Claypoole Search is the go-to partner for elite managers seeking to attract, structure, and retain high-performing in-house legal and compliance teams, and for AmLaw 100-trained, high-caliber attorneys and compliance leaders pursuing career-defining opportunities.
