A bit about us:

We're a well-established, full-service law firm with roots going back more than 60 years and a 200+ attorney footprint across New York, Los Angeles, and Miami. Our Bankruptcy, Reorganization + Creditors' Rights practice, working closely with our broader Litigation Group, represents institutional lenders, collateral managers, hedge funds, and other asset-based lenders in commercial disputes — default-based workouts, residential and commercial foreclosure actions, commercial collections, and judgment enforcement. Legal 500 named us a top U.S. law firm for the 18th consecutive year running, ranking eight of our practices as top-tier nationally, and our litigation and creditor's rights work is built the same way: sophisticated, lender-side matters handled with direct partner involvement.

Why join us?

This is a seat handling substantive state court litigation on behalf of institutional lenders, not a desk churning through routine collections work. You'll get hands-on experience with foreclosure actions, mortgage and security interest enforcement, and judgment enforcement litigation, with direct exposure to loan workouts and Article 9 proceedings alongside a team that handles this work at a sophisticated level. If you want real ownership of creditor's rights matters rather than a supporting role on a big-firm assembly line, this is that opportunity.

Job Details

Active New York Bar admission required
3rd–4th year associate with state court litigation experience
Experience with both residential and commercial property foreclosure actions
Experience with commercial collection actions
Experience enforcing mortgages and other security interests in New York
Experience with loan workouts, Article 9 foreclosure proceedings, and mortgage loan purchase and sale transactions is a plus
