Practice and Procedure

Transitioning from a junior bankruptcy associate to a mid-level bankruptcy associate can sometimes feel like climbing the staircases at Hogwarts: difficult and uneasy at first, but it eventually becomes second nature. As a junior associate, one learns the fundamentals of bankruptcy law, fine-tunes research skills, and finds an understanding of how to work with managing and senior associates and partners. Stepping into a mid-level position requires letting go of the handrails and transitioning into managing up and down, engaging with clients, and running the day-to-day of cases.
