As commercial real estate workouts and restructurings accelerate across the market, a longstanding New York real estate law firm with deep relationships among owners, developers, lenders, and institutional investors is expanding its Bankruptcy & Restructuring practice. This represents a next generation opportunity for the right restructuring partner to help shape and lead the firm’s evolving platform, working closely with firm leadership as the practice continues to grow.
The practice handles Chapter 11 matters, lender workouts, distressed real estate transactions, and related commercial litigation, working closely with the firm’s real estate and finance teams on complex restructuring matters tied to distressed properties and financings.
The incoming partner would have genuine authority to help lead and expand the practice, with the ability to build a restructuring platform supported by a significant real estate client base. A portable book of business (generally $1M+) is expected. Compensation includes a $400K to $475K base, generous bonus, and meaningful participation in originations.
The firm is interested in speaking with a revenue producing creditor side restructuring partner whose clients would benefit from a platform deeply embedded in the New York real estate ecosystem.
Confidential conversations welcome.
