Testimonials
Carol - Executive Director
It was a pleasure working with my recruiter, because he listened to what we were looking for, and almost as importantly, what we wanted to avoid. I have every confidence that our new Technology Manager will prove to be a very good hire, primarily because both of us were confident that we had truly heard one another.

California's First Legal Technology Staffing Firm

 

 

A lot has changed in technology since ESP Legal Technology Professionals opened its office in 1996. The first version of Java programming language had just been released, EBay was only just becoming a household name, and Novell was the network of choice. ESP placed our first IT System Administrator to support our client's Novell Network.


Since then, ESP has placed over 500 IT professionals in direct hire, contract-to-hire, and contract roles at law firms ranging from small 20 attorney firms with a single technology professional to large law firms with hundreds of technology staff.

Chris Hildreth founded ESP with his brother, Bob Hildreth, to meet the needs for legal technology staffing in California. Bob is owner and president of ESP Systems Professionals, Inc., the leading information technology staffing firm in the Minneapolis marketplace. After serving the technology needs of law firms for 30 years, Chris’ knowledge and experience paired with the successful business model of the Minneapolis office, allowed ESP to provide law firm clients a more effective solution for technology staffing.

 

Specializing in placing legal technology staff, ESP has become the premiere technology staffing firm for law firms in Southern California, on the East coast and the Pacific Northwest. We did it by building the business on ideals and practices of integrity, value and commitment to clients and employees. By dedicating our services to IT and litigation staffing, ESP sends fewer, but better, qualified resumes for our clients to review, saving them valuable time while filling their open positions. In 2005, the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of the Association of Legal Administrators (GLALA) featured ESP in their Vendor Spotlight (PDF). ESP is proud of the reputation we have developed and our recognition by the ALA.

 

ESP continues to be the most trusted legal technology staffing firm in the Los Angeles area with 15 years of legal technology experience and a large proprietary database. We uphold the same level of professional standards, personal values and client success by continuing to identify the best candidates in legal technology for direct hire, contract-to-hire, and consulting. We begin with a commitment to quality and what follows is excellent customer service that exceeds both client and candidate expectations. After 15 years, our success still comes from placing people first.
