The USTP seeks an experienced chapter 11 attorney to provide expert legal advice on a wide range of chapter 11 issues, including complex chapter 11 litigation, to senior managers and field-based personnel. This position reports to the Associate General Counsel for Chapter 11 Practice and serves as a member of a cohesive and collegial chapter 11 team based in OGC that seeks to ensure consistency across jurisdictions and rigorous adherence to the Code by developing litigation strategies, conducting legal research, drafting and reviewing pleadings, memoranda, briefs, and other legal documents as well as developing guidance, policies, and training.

Typical Duties of a Chapter 11 Trial Attorney include:

  2. Advise and counsel on a broad spectrum of complex legal issues including, among others, fraudulent or improper practices by a debtor in possession that may require the appointment of a trustee to replace management or of an examiner to analyze the debtor’s affairs, executive compensation arrangements proposed in violation of 11 U.S.C. § 503(c), professional retention and compensation, committee formation and related litigation, and plan and disclosure statement litigation;
  3. Draft and review pleadings, memoranda, and briefs;
  4. Develop and implement chapter 11 policies on matters of USTP significance;
  5. Prepare and present training sessions, both live and distance, for USTP personnel on a variety of chapter 11 issues;
  6. Assist in the drafting, review, and preparation of public presentations and articles;
  7. Identify emerging issues and developing trends in chapter 11 practice and recommend USTP responses, as appropriate;
  8. Participate in working groups and other collaborative efforts relevant to chapter 11 practice;
  9. Assist and advise a team of dedicated appellate lawyers on the defense and prosecution of appeals relevant to chapter 11 issues from district courts to the U.S. Supreme Court, recently including, among others, Purdue Pharma, FTX, LTL I and II (J&J), and Aero (3M);
  10. Cooperate and support other departments in EOUST on special projects, as assigned, related to chapter 11 practice, including media, congressional, and public inquiries and information requests;
  11. Consult and advise on cases under other chapters of the Bankruptcy Code, where issues may affect or intersect with chapter 11;
  12. Support USTP outreach to interested constituents and those involved in the bankruptcy system, such as the bankruptcy court, the bar, other federal and state agencies, and professional organizations;
  13. Work on other national projects and priorities, as assigned.
