A lateral partner hire in this practice turns on the portability of the practice, far more than on any headline figure.

Leading law firm is seeking a lateral partner to join its Finance & Banking practice in Charleston, focusing on structured finance and securitization. The role is client-facing and involves originating and executing complex financings across secured and structured products.

The partner will advise corporate and institutional clients, lead transactions, and collaborate with national finance teams. The position includes responsibility for business development, client relationship management, and mentoring junior lawyers.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Established partner track record in structured finance / securitization and leveraged finance transactions
Strong origination and client-development skills
Bar admission in the relevant jurisdiction and ability to practice in the U.S.

Where the match is not obvious from the description, it is usually still worth talking — these mandates flex around the right practice.
