Professional Services

Boyden's Professional Services Practice encompasses law, accounting, and consulting firm clients. The structure of our organization mirrors that of our clients, thus allowing us a unique understanding of their needs and enabling us to conduct global searches from a local perspective.

Boyden excels at searches for partners and other practitioners, as well as administrative professionals within these firms. In addition, we help clients identify and attract strategic merger and acquisition candidates.

Management Consulting

The Management Consulting industry has been a core practice area of the firm since our founding in 1946. The firm’s founder, Sidney Boyden, came from Booz, Frye, Allen and Hamilton, today known as Booz Allen Hamilton, and many of the firm’s senior members have management consulting backgrounds. Today the firm consults to a broad cross-section of management consulting firms that focus in virtually every industry and discipline including:

At Boyden, we are cognizant of the importance of this expertise and have experienced consultants who have been successful practitioners at identifying and successfully recruiting such talent.
