Our History

Scott & Melinda Delmonico
Gibson Arnold & Associates has over 39 years of experience in the legal staffing industry. Founded in Houston in 1981 by entrepreneur, Yahne Gibson, Gibson Arnold & Associates was one of the first staffing agencies to focus on the legal industry nationally and internationally. Gibson Arnold & Associates developed a business concept that quickly earned a reputation for quality and professionalism. This time tested formula remains the foundation of our highly accomplished business model and the reason for our decades of service to the legal community. Our executive management team and recruiters are committed to the success of our clients by finding exceptional legal talent and standing behind our work.
