Associate Attorney Bankruptcy
Law clerk job in New York, NY
The firm is one of the world's leading global law firms advising the businesses and institutions that drive the global economy. They are the market leaders in major financial and business centers globally and offer unmatched expertise and resources to help you grow from an intellectually curious self-starter into an exceptional lawyer. If you aspire to be the best, this is where you belong.
About the Role
They represent companies, financial institutions, private equity firms, and individuals in their most significant and high-stakes disputes. They tailor their litigation teams to the specific characteristics of each matter, drawing on a global team of seasoned litigators and trial lawyers to match the industry, claims, subject matter, client goals, and venue at play. Regardless of the nature of the dispute, they adopt a trial-ready strategy from the outset to achieve the best result for the client, in whatever form success takes.
Their deep bench of experienced trial lawyers, including dozens of former US federal prosecutors, have successfully tried or arbitrated hundreds of cases to verdict in the last decade. Opposing counsel knows their track record of taking the toughest cases to trial and winning - a reputation that often influences settlement considerations when their name appears on the docket.
They pair their experience with a fluency in the market dynamics that are influencing industries - from financial services to technology and energy to life sciences - across the world. They routinely litigate business torts, contract and joint venture disputes, fraud and unfair competition as well as consumer protection claims, insolvency and restructuring matters, insurance coverage, and trade secrets cases across a wide range of industries and venues. This diverse practice gives them insight into the litigation strategies that help their clients prevail.
Their clients' business objectives guide our litigation planning. They take into account the size of the matter, the client's exposure or upside, and the significance of the case to the client. Recognizing that litigation is just one part of a larger business strategy, they evaluate early exit options to minimize costs, including dispositive motions, alternative dispute resolution, and settlement, as well as third-party indemnification and insurance coverage.
Responsibilities & Qualifications
The Complex Commercial Litigation Practice is seeking an associate with a minimum of 3 years of bankruptcy litigation experience.
Our Client is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer, encouraging applications from people of all backgrounds.
