Former Pillsbury Winthrop associate David Derrico thinks he's found a way to prevent unwanted recruiter calls. He created a Web site that tries to link associates who are looking to be headhunted with recruiters. While it's not booming yet -- fewer than 100 associates have signed up -- Derrico has faith more people will sign up before he approaches headhunters with his pitch. But not surprisingly, recruiters are skeptical, saying that their most successful matches come from lawyers who aren't on the market.

When he was an associate in the L.A. office of Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, David Derrico says he got headhunter calls almost every day. One day, he got five before lunch.
“I was always polite, but some headhunters were really pushy,” he said. It could be overwhelming, he said, especially after his firm got bad press. “Then they were like sharks circling the waters.”
