We are a boutique legal placement firm that specializes in attorney recruitment. We provide consultation services to large corporate law firms and corporations on attorney placements.
We are looking for a typeface logo design that fits around the image we are striving for: corporate and professional, yet elegant and sophisticated. Thus, the logo should be stylish and memorable without being too quirky or stuffy.
Our target audience is large and mid-size corporate law firms, legal offices in corporations, and attorneys. Basically, we are targeting lawyers. This audience is typically very conservative, but aggressive. They are very analytical thinkers and are often required to think on their toes. Therefore, they can often make quick decisions based on a limited amount of information.
-We are looking for a simple, clean, yet professional typeface logo design.
-We like designs that incorporate some type of monogram concept, but we are not limited to that. In fact, we would like to see a variety of both.
-We would like light colored lettering against a darkly colored background. The colors we prefer are yellows, greens, blues, and grays, but no pastels. However, feel free to be creative with the hues; basic yellows, greens, blues, and grays are not necessary.
-We would like the design to be gender neutral: nothing to masculine or feminine.
-We want the logo to reflect a kind of cutting edge playfulness, but we want it to look serious at the same time. We are not interested in cheesy fonts, just a clean design.
-Feel free to play around with spacing, variations in fonts, etc.
