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 Corporate Trust Practice is one of the most well-regarded default-side corporate trust practices in the market, representing indenture trustees, administrative and collateral agents, and the corporate trust and loan agency departments of major banks and financial institutions across public and private debt financings, securitizations, and complex restructurings. 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 corporate trust and bankruptcy work is built the same way: sophisticated, institutional-client matters handled with direct partner involvement.

Salary: $205,000 - $235,000 per year

Why join us

This is a seat on a nationally recognized corporate trust team, not a supporting role buried in a large-firm associate pool. You'll work directly with indenture trustees, agents, and financial institution clients on public and private debt and loan transactions, with exposure to private credit and direct lending deals alongside a team that regularly handles complex restructurings and default-side matters. If you want to build a specialized, high-value practice area early rather than grind through generalist corporate work, this is that opportunity.
