Bankruptcy & Restructuring Associate Attorney
$260k - $390kLateral Link
Job Description
Restructuring is the one practice where a 4th-year can be the most important lawyer in the room at a first-day hearing — the partners are negotiating with the lenders, and the associate who knows the DIP order cold is the one running the docket.
\n \nAn AmLaw 50 firm with a nationally ranked restructuring practice is hiring a mid-level bankruptcy & restructuring associate (3–6 years) in New York. Cravath scale — $260K–$390K depending on class year.
\n \nYou'd represent debtors, creditors' committees, individual creditors, and distressed buyers across in-court and out-of-court matters, managing your own client relationships and day-to-day workflow at your level rather than waiting on a partner to hand down the next task.
\n \nThe work includes:
\n \n- \n
- Chapter 11 cases in SDNY, Delaware, SDTX, and NJ — first-day motions, DIP financing, plan negotiation, and confirmation \n
- Creditors' committee and individual creditor representations, including claims litigation and adversary proceedings \n
- Section 363 sales, distressed M&A, and stalking horse and credit bid strategy \n
- Out-of-court restructurings, liability management exercises, and exchange offers \n
What you bring:
\n \n- \n
- 3–6 years of Chapter 11 and restructuring experience at a comparable firm, or a bankruptcy clerkship plus firm experience \n
- Reps on both the debtor and creditor side, with real drafting and courtroom exposure \n
- Ability to run multiple matters at different stages and own the client relationship \n
- Strong academics; New York bar admission \n
What you get:
\n \n- \n
- A practice that's counter-cyclical by design and busy right now, with a client mix spanning debtors, committees, and purchasers \n
- Mid-level ownership that most litigation and corporate associates wait years for \n
- Cravath scale ($260K–$390K depending on class year), plus bonus eligibility \n
