The center of the expanding global marketplace, New York City
brings together both U.S. and international interests in
almost every industry – from finance, banking and professional
services to retail, media and technology. It is also home to
more corporate headquarters than any other U.S. city. As such,
New York has long epitomized the business world’s state of
constant change, in which challenges can quickly become new
opportunities, whether on Wall Street, in Silicon Alley, or in
the boardrooms of multinational companies. Just as importantly,
New York has shown the world how to make a comeback time and
again, such as the city’s financial rebound in the ‘80s, the
rebirth of Times Square in the early ‘90s and the current
rebuilding in downtown.
StayLaw New York
office helps our clients – from Fortune 500 companies
to today’s most progressive entrepreneurs – weather the
uncertainties that accompany such continuous change. We
provide strategic legal counsel to help our clients make the
most of their business opportunities in this dynamic
environment.
Our New York team is almost
as multifaceted as the city we work in. With more than 300
attorneys and governmental professionals, we represent all of
the firm’s major practices and areas of industry experience,
from corporate transactional work and litigation to real
estate, intellectual property and governmental affairs. Our
areas of experience are varied but our approach is always the
same – to provide practical legal counsel and help our clients
achieve their objectives in the face of market changes and
challenges.
Working at the center of the
capital markets, our corporate and securities lawyers advise
companies on an array of major business transactions. Our real
estate attorneys likewise represent clients in nearly every
area of the industry, including hotels, resorts and real
estate investment trusts. In both practices, we regularly work
on matters around the country and the world.
Our New York litigators are
an integral part of the firm’s national practice, which
numbers more than 500 trial lawyers. We concentrate on
antitrust, intellectual property, international, real estate
and securities litigation, as well as offering clients an
active appellate practice.
In a city as large and
complex as New York, it can be a challenge to get things done
– even for experienced business people. Our Governmental
Affairs Practice helps clients navigate the complicated world
of city and state government and regularly advocates for their
interests. In fact, the city clerk’s office has consistently
ranked our practice among the Top 5 in New York City.
Companies in a range of
industries count on our intellectual property attorneys for
protection and strategic counsel on an international scale. We
often work together with the Technology, Media &
Telecommunications Practice, which advises clients on
transactions and disputes related to the procurement, sale and
protection of their products and services.
StayLaw New York attorneys also
assist clients with legal matters involving entertainment,
executive compensation and employee benefits, labor and
employment, litigation, trusts and estates, and tax – to name
just a few more of our many practices.
Our firm culture is built on
a strong tradition of service. Our attorneys include a former
New York City Deputy Mayor for Economic Development and
Finance; a former New York City Council member; a Justice of
the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, First Division; and
a former Justice of the New York State Supreme Court. We also
hold leadership positions or are otherwise actively involved
in community and service organizations such as the New York
Association of New Americans, Easter Seals New York and
Citymeals-on-Wheels. |
