FINANCE & BANKING
Finance and banking lawyers are among the most in-demand laterals at New York's top firms.
The finance lateral market is driven by deal volume — when leveraged finance, structured products, and acquisition finance are busy, firms are actively looking. When markets slow, searches become more selective but never disappear entirely. We work with finance associates across leveraged finance, debt capital markets, structured finance, and project finance. At the senior end, the market for counsel and partner-level finance lawyers is consistently strong. New York is the clear centre of the US finance lateral market, though Houston has a particularly active project finance and energy finance community. We are active in both.
A short, confidential conversation costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Reach out and we'll take it from there.
CONFIDENTIALITY COMMITMENT
Your current employer will never be contacted. Your name goes nowhere without your permission. You can stop the process at any point.
WHAT FIRMS TYPICALLY LOOK FOR
Subspecialty
Leveraged finance, structured products, DCM, project finance — firms usually hire into a specific area.
Deal quality
Transaction size and lender/borrower balance matters. Top firms want genuine breadth of exposure.
Level
Associates 2–6 years most active. Partner moves consistently strong in leveraged finance.
Market
New York dominant. Houston strong for project and energy finance. Chicago active for mid-market.
