Form of workBecome part of the Parker Poe team that - for more than a century - has represented many of the Southeast's largest companies and local governments. We are a tight-knit firm that values the person beyond the lawyer or professional. Because of this, in addition to structured integration efforts, you will find that mentorship, professional development, and internal referrals happen organically. If you want to join a collaborative team providing sophisticated legal services - without losing sight of our calling to give back to our communities - this is the place to be.
ABOUT THE ROLE:
Parker Poe is seeking an associate with 3 to 6 years of experience to join our Financial Restructuring & Insolvency Practice Group in Raleigh or Charlotte, North Carolina, with a preference for Raleigh. Candidates should have experience representing creditors in all aspects of commercial debt collection and loss mitigation, including loan restructuring, bankruptcy, litigation, foreclosure and post-judgment execution. The ideal candidate will also have a broad range of business litigation experience in federal and state courts. Prior Bankruptcy Court clerkship experience is a plus and State Bar of North Carolina licensure is required.
ABOUT THE PRACTICE:
Parker Poe's Financial Restructuring & Insolvency Practice Group is one of the premier teams in the Southeast. Clients and peers say the group "maintains a strong reputation for its broad insolvency practice," and they describe our attorneys as "exceptional," "highly experienced," "always professional and knowledgeable," and "a pleasure to work with." Those quotes come from Chambers USA, which awarded Parker Poe the highest possible ranking - Band 1 - for bankruptcy/restructuring in North Carolina based on in-depth interviews and objective research. Our team is also nationally ranked by The Best Lawyers in America.
Based in Charlotte with eight offices strategically located throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Washington, DC, we represent a broad spectrum of international, national, and regional clients in the financial services industry and beyond. We represent banks, CMBS and other commercial mortgage servicers, distressed debt investors, and other institutional lenders in debt restructuring and loan workouts, commercial foreclosures, receiverships, bankruptcy proceedings, and litigation to enforce creditors' rights. Our clients also include manufacturers, distributors, retailers, commercial landlords, equipment leasing companies, and insurance companies.
Our group works in close coordination with other practice groups in the firm, particularly Banking & Capital Markets, Real Estate & Commercial Development, and Business Litigation, to provide our clients with the resources and knowledge needed to stay on top in this complicated and fast-moving arena.
