Job Description
Salary range: $250K - $300K
Location: Midtown East, New York, NY
We are looking for a Senior Bankruptcy Attorney with 15+ years of experience to lead and build out the bankruptcy and restructuring practice at a top-ranked boutique venture capital law firm. You'll bring your own portable book of business ($1M-$1.5M in annual collections) and serve as the head of the department, with a clear path to equity partnership and exceptional compensation upside.
What will you be doing?
- Leading the firm's bankruptcy and restructuring practice as the senior department head
- Advising investment funds on troubled portfolio companies, focusing on debt-side restructuring and workouts (not exclusively Chapter 11)
- Handling both in-court bankruptcy matters and out-of-court restructurings
- Working 300-400 hours per year on firm-generated bankruptcy work alongside your portable practice
- Mentoring and directing a junior associate with bankruptcy background already on staff
Key Requirements
- Must have a standalone portable bankruptcy/restructuring practice ($1M-$1.5M in annual collections)
- Deep experience in both in-court bankruptcy and out-of-court workouts/restructurings
- Ability to operate as a department head — you will essentially be the practice
- Entrepreneurial mindset with desire to grow a book of business on a supportive platform
- Some big law firm experience preferred; must be comfortable in a high-level boutique setting
Role responsibilities
• Oversee portable bankruptcy practice
• Work 300 to 400 hours per year of firm-generated bankruptcy work
• Grow the attorney's current practice
• Work closely with Reitler attorneys servicing existing firm clients
• Support in growing their own book of business
