  • Draft and negotiate restructuring agreements, forbearance agreements, workout agreements, and bankruptcy-related transactions.
  • Counsel clients on insolvency issues, creditor rights, debtor rights, bankruptcy risk management, and strategic alternatives.
  • Represent clients in adversary proceedings, contested matters, mediations, and settlement negotiations.
  • Develop and maintain strong client relationships while continuing to expand an established book of business.
  • Collaborate with attorneys across corporate, commercial litigation, real estate, and finance practice groups to provide comprehensive client solutions.
  • Mentor junior attorneys and contribute to the continued growth of the bankruptcy practice.

Qualifications:

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school.
  • Active membership in good standing with the New York State Bar.
  • Significant experience representing debtors in complex bankruptcy and restructuring matters.
  • Demonstrated experience handling Chapter 11 reorganizations, bankruptcy litigation, insolvency, and creditor-debtor matters.
  • Established portable book of business required.
  • Strong experience appearing before U.S. Bankruptcy Courts and managing contested proceedings.
  • Excellent legal research, writing, negotiation, and courtroom advocacy skills.
  • Strong business development experience with a demonstrated ability to originate and maintain client relationships.
  • Ability to independently manage a sophisticated bankruptcy practice while collaborating within a team-oriented environment.

Desired Qualifications:

  • Experience representing middle-market businesses, closely held companies, and high-net-worth individuals in bankruptcy and restructuring matters.
  • Experience with commercial finance, secured transactions, UCC matters, and distressed asset acquisitions.
  • Experience handling complex workouts, receiverships, and out-of-court restructurings.
  • Leadership experience mentoring junior attorneys or leading client teams.
  • Established relationships within the New York business, financial, or legal communities.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive compensation commensurate with experience and the size of the candidate's portable book of business.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
