• Handle adversary proceedings and contested matters
• Draft pleadings, motions, briefs, and bankruptcy court filings
• Conduct legal research and develop litigation strategies
• Attend hearings, depositions, mediations, and court proceedings
• Manage discovery and all phases of litigation
• Communicate directly with clients, trustees, opposing counsel, and the Court
• Work with partners and attorneys on complex commercial litigation matters
