Bankruptcy & Restructuring Law Partner | Portable Book of Business | Boutique Firms Welcome

$350k

Goodwin Recruiting

Are you an established Bankruptcy & Restructuring Partner, solo practitioner, or boutique firm owner looking for a larger platform to grow your practice without giving up the independence you've built?

A growing, entrepreneurial law firm is seeking established Bankruptcy, Restructuring, and Creditors' Rights Partners and attorneys with portable books of business who are interested in joining forces with a firm that offers the infrastructure, resources, and business development support to take their practice to the next level.

This opportunity is particularly attractive to solo practitioners, boutique firm owners, and partners who have built successful bankruptcy, restructuring, or creditors' rights practices but want to spend less time managing the business of law and more time serving clients, handling sophisticated matters, and generating revenue.

Whether you're considering a lateral move, transitioning your solo practice, or exploring a potential merger for your small firm, this platform offers the flexibility, autonomy, and financial upside to make your next chapter even more successful.

Bankruptcy & Restructuring Law Partner | Benefits & Compensation

  • Highly competitive, revenue-driven partner compensation structure based on portable business, collections, and practice contribution
  • Opportunity to transition an existing bankruptcy or restructuring practice or explore a potential small firm merger
  • Retain significant autonomy over your clients, practice, and business development
  • Established infrastructure, administrative support, and operational resources
  • Dedicated marketing, branding, and business development support to help expand your book of business
  • Access to a broader network of attorneys and complementary practice areas for cross-referrals
  • Opportunity to grow your practice without the overhead and administrative responsibilities of running your own firm
  • Entrepreneurial, collaborative culture without unnecessary bureaucracy
  • Long-term opportunity to build and lead an expanding Bankruptcy, Restructuring, and Creditors' Rights practice

Bankruptcy & Restructuring Law Partner | Requirements & Qualifications

  • J.D. from an accredited law school
  • Licensed and in good standing to practice law in at least one U.S. jurisdiction
  • Significant experience in bankruptcy, restructuring, insolvency, creditors' rights, or related commercial litigation
  • Established practice with a transferable book of business, ideally $350K+ annually
  • Current law firm partner, solo practitioner, boutique firm owner, or senior attorney with an established client base
  • Experience representing creditors, lenders, financial institutions, investors, trustees, distressed businesses, or other stakeholders in bankruptcy and restructuring matters
  • Demonstrated ability to originate business and maintain long-standing client relationships
  • Ability to independently manage sophisticated bankruptcy proceedings, restructurings, workouts, and related litigation
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with an interest in expanding an established practice
  • Open to exploring a lateral partnership, practice integration, or potential small firm merger

Bankruptcy & Restructuring Law Partner | Preferred Background & Skills

  • Established relationships with commercial lenders, banks, private credit funds, financial institutions, distressed businesses, investors, or other institutional clients
  • Experience representing secured and unsecured creditors, debtors, trustees, creditors' committees, or other stakeholders in complex insolvency matters
  • Strong background in Chapter 11 proceedings, commercial workouts, debt restructurings, receiverships, distressed transactions, and bankruptcy litigation
  • Experience handling loan enforcement, forbearance agreements, asset recovery, adversary proceedings, and out-of-court restructurings
  • Background with an AmLaw firm, mid-sized business law firm, bankruptcy boutique, creditors' rights firm, or independently operated practice
  • Experience operating a solo practice, managing a boutique law firm, or leading a bankruptcy and restructuring practice group
  • Interest in leveraging a larger firm's resources to expand an existing client base
  • Ability to identify cross-selling opportunities involving corporate transactions, commercial litigation, real estate, finance, and other complementary practice areas
  • Experience mentoring or managing associates is a plus

Bankruptcy & Restructuring Law Partner | Day-to-Day Responsibilities

  • Transition and continue managing your existing bankruptcy, restructuring, or creditors' rights practice within a larger, supportive platform
  • Maintain and expand relationships with your established clients while developing new business opportunities
  • Represent creditors, lenders, investors, trustees, distressed companies, and other stakeholders in bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings
  • Advise clients on Chapter 11 reorganizations, restructurings, commercial workouts, and distressed business transactions
  • Negotiate and structure loan workouts, forbearance agreements, debt restructurings, settlements, and related financial arrangements
  • Oversee bankruptcy litigation, adversary proceedings, contested matters, receiverships, and related commercial disputes
  • Counsel clients on creditor remedies, debt enforcement, asset recovery, insolvency risk, and strategic alternatives
  • Collaborate with attorneys across complementary practice areas to provide comprehensive legal services and create additional opportunities for clients
  • Leverage the firm's marketing, operational, and business development resources to grow your practice
  • Help shape the continued expansion of the firm's Bankruptcy, Restructuring, and Creditors' Rights practice

Ready to Grow Your Bankruptcy & Restructuring Practice Without Building Everything Yourself?

You've spent years building your reputation, developing relationships with lenders, financial institutions, investors, and business owners, and establishing a successful bankruptcy or restructuring practice. The next step shouldn't mean starting over.

Whether you're a partner considering a lateral move, a solo practitioner looking to eliminate overhead, or a boutique firm owner exploring a merger, this could be an opportunity to grow your business while maintaining the independence and client relationships that made you successful.

This is an opportunity to bring the practice you've built to a platform that can help you take it further.

All inquiries and conversations will be handled with the utmost confidentiality.
