Kirkland & Ellis has hired Wachtell restructuring and finance chair Joshua Feltman, as the global elite continue to compete for talent in the increasingly important field of liability management.
Kirkland’s hire of Feltman, a Wachtell lifer who joined the firm in 2002 and made partner in 2010, comes after the departure of heavyweight restructuring partner David Nemecek, who left for Simpson Thacher in February to head the firm’s newly created capital structure solutions practice.
