  • The recruiter alleged in November that the law firm owed more than $70,000 in fees for an associate it helped locate.

Back in November, alleging that the firm neglected to pay more than $73,000 in fees owed to New York-based recruiter MacKay & Agents. Now months later, Holland & Knight settled the lawsuit in court.

Just more than a year ago, MacKay & Agents claimed it helped the Am Law 100 firm locate an associate from White & Case for its Miami office.
