Are you a confident banking and finance lawyer open to a new opportunity with a very successful law firm?

Do you have the experience and confidence to be the primary attorney managing and overseeing deals and important client relationships?

Are you an optimistic self-starter with a positive outlook who loves what you do and works well with others?

Are you tired of big firm practice, running your own firm, or not being fully valued and recognized for your contribution?

If you meet the criteria above and the qualifications below, then I would love to talk to you about possibly joining our firm and working together for the long term.

We are looking to add an attorney to our phenomenal existing Bankruptcy Litigation law team who will be a principal attorney and have the opportunity to learn how to run and grow with a successful firm.

What We Do:
Bankruptcy Litigation is different from a typical lawsuit, where one or more parties file a lawsuit against one or more parties in order to obtain a monetary judgment for damages. Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings are a series of hearings, starting with “first day motions,” brought by the Debtor-in-Possession (DIP) before most creditors are prepared to respond. Some of the hearings may only affect certain constituents, such as suppliers or landlords, but each step shapes the outcome of the case. A creditor may file its proof of claim and not receive any notices from the debtor or the court that appear important for over a year. And then receive an objection to the claim or demand for turnover of funds from the debtor or a trustee. Suddenly, the creditor is required to defend its claim and defend a lawsuit brought by the debtor or a trustee requesting that the creditor is required to repay whatever payments it received prior to the bankruptcy filing. Our bankruptcy attorneys, who regularly appear in court, will be your advocate in any of these circumstances.

Here are some examples of cases we can handle for you:

• Preference Actions: You finally get paid by a slow-paying customer, who then files for bankruptcy. You receive a demand for a return of the payment from the debtor or a bankruptcy trustee.
• Fraudulent Transfer Actions: Your company closes on a complicated business transaction, and subsequently, one of the other parties to the transaction files for bankruptcy. Your company has been served with a lawsuit to unwind the transaction and/or recover money damages.

Types of Court Cases:

• Objections of Claims
• Plan Confirmation
• Cash Collateral and Debtor-in-Possession Financing
• Automatic Stay Litigation
• Value Proceedings
• Asset Sales and Going-out-of-Business Sales
• Committee, Trustee, and Receivership Representation

We approach bankruptcy litigation cases aggressively and efficiently, and we do not believe that one approach works in all cases. Whether you need us to assert a claim against a debtor or defend a lawsuit against you by a debtor or trustee, we will provide you with an initial assessment of the case. This initial assessment includes both the benefits and the risks that are foreseeable at the outset of the case, as well as a projected budget for the legal expenses so you can make prudent and informed decisions. Throughout the various stages of the litigation, we will reassess your case and adjust our litigation strategy as needed to provide you with the most advantageous position. At the same time, we vigorously serve as your advocate, and when feasible, we will keep the door open for negotiating a compromise and settlement that you find acceptable.
