Founding story.

In 1994, Sandrea Friedman, Peter Goldfeder, and Peter Gosule founded The PeterSan Group with a singular vision: to create a full-service legal search firm that places attorneys in all facets of the legal market with unwavering professionalism and discretion.

For three decades, we built our reputation on disciplined screening, deep legal expertise, and confidential searches conducted with the highest standards. Our founders, themselves experienced in the legal profession, understood what law firms and corporate legal departments needed—and what attorneys valued in career transitions.

In-house depth.

We have unmatched depth in in-house placements. From General Counsel and Chief IP Counsel to Chief Compliance Counsel, Heads of Corporate and Litigation, and junior in-house roles, we've helped hundreds of attorneys successfully transition from firm to in-house practice.

We understand the difference between firm and in-house practice—and what makes a successful in-house attorney. That knowledge informs every search we conduct.

The Talento chapter.

In 2025, TalentoHC acquired The PeterSan Group to formalize and expand its legal vertical. The practice now operates as Talento Legal Search & Consulting—retaining every consultant, every client relationship, and every standard that built our reputation.

What changed: more reach, more technology, more cross-functional capability through TalentoHC's global talent platform spanning 100+ cities and 10+ countries.

What didn't change: the team, the standards, and the discretion that define our practice.
