Joel Moss Joins Cahill’s New York Office as a Bankruptcy and Restructuring Partner

NEW YORK, MARCH 9, 2023 – Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP announced today that Joel Moss has joined the firm as a partner in its Bankruptcy & Restructuring practice.

Mr. Moss’s practice focuses on representing a broad range of clients including financial institutions, hedge funds, direct lenders and ad hoc secured lender and noteholder groups in complex in-court and out-of-court restructurings, workouts, rescue financings, liability management transactions and DIP and exit financings. He also has substantial experience advising financial institutions and hedge funds in connection with the mitigation of risks associated with derivative, futures and securitization transactions.

“Joel has an innate understanding of our creditor clients’ needs, given the broad range of bankruptcy and restructuring matters he has managed over his career,” said William M. Hartnett, Co-Chair of Cahill’s Executive Committee. “He is well-placed to see around corners on behalf of all of our creditor clients, anticipating their concerns and developing potential solutions.”

“Joel’s impressive client roster extends well beyond financial institutions, encompassing ad hoc groups of secured lenders and note holders, direct lenders, hedge funds and others, helping prepare them to navigate deeply complex workouts and restructurings,” said Jennifer Ezring, Co-Chair of Cahill’s Executive Committee.

“As the top-ranked legal advisor to financial institutions in leveraged finance and high yield products for decades, Cahill’s market-leading experience and deep client relationships are a force-multiplier for anyone advising the financial services industry on restructuring related matters, including myself,” Mr. Moss said. “I am eager to begin collaborating with the team here.”

In highlighting Mr. Moss’s role as a leading bankruptcy attorney, The Legal 500 writes that his “former in-house experience means he has a deep and unique understanding of what his bank clients are looking for.” He has also been recognized by IFLR1000 as a Rising Star.
